[Current controversies in risk-adapted therapy in differentiated thyroid cancer: Is less (therapy) really more?]
Article in Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In recent years, there has been worldwide a significant (relative) increase in "small" thyroid cancer (pT1 = tumor size of ≤10 mm), which has now reached a plateau. This fact and the absence of prospective and randomized clinical trials are increasingly leading to a discussion of the so-called risk-adapted management of differentiated thyroid cancer. The available studies are partly incomplete, retrospective and difficult to compare. In addition, factors such as different iodine supply, cost-benefit considerations and regional differences in quality of surgical procedures influence the implementation of therapy concepts. Therefore, the therapy of the differentiated thyroid cancer is currently the subject of intensive discussion, especially in "low risk" situations. There is a worldwide trend to classify the risk of differentiated thyroid cancer in general lower than in the past and thus also to reduce the extent of the traditionally recommended therapy. The discussion is increasingly moving from the "one size fits all" towards personalized and thus risk-adapted therapy of the differentiated thyroid cancer.The main goal of this "paradigm shift" is to avoid an "overtreatment" which may be associated with permanent complications due to "unnecessary" surgical procedures and any negative effects of radioiodine ablation.This overview attempts to answer the following questions: When is a risk-adapted therapy for differentiated thyroid cancer justified? What are the consequences in differentiated thyroid cancer if no radioiodine therapy is performed?
