Papillary Carcinoma in Thyroglossal Cyst: an Unusual Case.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 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
Malignancy developing in thyroglossal cysts is very rare. Papillary carcinoma is the most common histopathological type of carcinoma encountered in thyroglossal cysts followed by squamous cell carcinoma. A 50-year-old male presented with a midline neck swelling. After ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology, he underwent Sistrunk operation for removal of the thyroglossal cyst. The histopathology was reported as papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. So, he underwent total thyroidectomy, which showed foci of papillary microcarcinoma. Clinical awareness of this rare condition is essential for proper management. Possibility of malignancy arising in thyroglossal cysts should be considered in elderly patients.
