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

The label cancer in itself leads to complex psychological reactions in patients that are closely related to previous experiences and self-image. A cancer diagnosis can lead to increased distress and subsequent mental comorbidity such as depression or anxiety disorders. The responsibility of the pathologist, as the person who first uses the label cancer, is high. The pathologist must be conscious and focus not only on the accuracy of the anatomical pathology, but also on the potential influences the wording may have on the mental health of the patient. The word "carcinoma" should only be used in the case of tumors with the respective biological behavior. The example of non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features shows that changing a label can lead to an improvement in distress and quality of life.
