Anterior mediastinal tumor as a solitary lymph node metastasis of occult thyroid carcinoma.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Solitary metastasis of occult thyroid carcinoma to the anterior mediastinum is very rare. A 65-year-old woman was examined for anterior mediastinal tumor based on the FDG accumulation on PET. We resected the tumor by video-assisted thoracic surgery. A pathological examination revealed that the tumor was lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma. The postoperative examination showed that the tumor was a solitary lymph node metastasis of occult thyroid carcinoma. Primary thyroid carcinoma has not appeared in 2 years since the surgery, and careful follow-up has been continued.
