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

backgroundAlthough the prognosis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) therapy is considered excellent over time, some cases have a poorer prognosis and evolve into death.

objectiveThis study aimed to estimate the 5-year specific survival and to identify prognosis factors in a cohort of DTC adult subjects.

methodsSurvival probability was estimated by Kaplan-Meier's method in a retrospective hospital-based cohort study. Comparisons were made by log-rank test. Prognosis factors were identified using Cox risk modeling and crude and adjusted Hazard Ratio measures were obtained. Two models were estimated, considering age grouping of the 7th and 8th editions of TNM.

resultsSpecific 5-year survival in the cohort was 98.5% (95%CI: 94.2 - 97.5). Considering TNM 7th edition, the risk estimates were 9.88 (95%CI: 1.67 - 58.33) for age group ≥ 55 years, 18.87 (95%CI: 7.38 - 48.29) for individuals with distant metastasis, 6.36 (95%CI: 2.26 - 17.91) for patients who underwent lymphadenectomy and 0.16 (95%CI: 0.06 - 0.43) for those who received radioiodine therapy. For TNM 8th edition, the risk estimates were 10.12 (95%CI: 2.05 - 50.09) for age group ≥ 55 years, 12.43 (95%CI: 4.58 - 33.77) for individuals with distant metastasis, 5.06 (95%CI: 1.82 - 14.05) for patients who underwent lymphadenectomy and 0.19 (95%CI: 0.07 - 0.51) for those who received radioiodine therapy.

conclusionsThis cohort had a very high survival over a 5-year period. The prognosis was negatively influenced by age, distant metastasis and lymphadenectomy, whereas radioiodine therapy was found to be protective.
