1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purposePapillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) has excellent outcomes, but extensive lymph node (LN) metastasis can be associated with fatal outcomes. We evaluated the mutational profiles of primary tumors and their metastatic LNs of PTMCs with extensive lateral cervical LN metastases.

methodsFormalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded archival samples from 16 sets of normal thyroid tissue, the primary PTMC, and the largest metastatic LN were used for targeted sequencing.

resultsA total of seven somatic variants were confirmed in the PTMCs compared to the normal tissue. The BRAF

conclusionThe mutational frequency of PTMCs was really low, even in those with extensive LN metastasis. The mutational status of the primary tumor and its metastatic LNs were not significantly different, and this suggests a minor role for genetic alterations in the process of LN metastasis in PTMC.
