Core needle biopsy in the management of thyroid nodules with an indeterminate fine-needle aspiration report.
Review in Gland surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ultrasonography (US)-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) cytology is widely used but is limited due to its pathologically indeterminate results in diagnosing thyroid nodules. Recently, US-guided core-needle biopsy (CNB) was introduced as an effective and safe technique for diagnosing indeterminate thyroid nodules. Using CNB, information about architectural histologic structure such as nodule capsule or more immunochemical staining can be obtained which lead to a more accurate diagnosis. Up to 98% of indeterminate thyroid lesions can be classified as malignant or benign when CNB is used for follow-up analysis. Other evidences revealed the effectiveness of CNB in reducing inconclusive results and improving the diagnostic performance of thyroid nodules initially diagnosed as AUS/FLUS by FNAB. In this review, we investigate how to deal with indeterminate thyroid nodules diagnosed by FNAB and determine how CNB has a role in diagnosing these indeterminate thyroid nodules.
