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 children, primary thyroid Burkitt lymphoma (PTBL) is an extremely rare pathologic entity of thyroid malignant tumor. Here we describe a case of PTBL in a 15-year-old boy, who developed a rapidly enlarging neck mass that showed signs of compression. The color Doppler ultrasound revealed diffuse swelling of the thyroid gland, with a solid and irregular mass from the left to the isthmus, which was about 8 × 7 × 5 cm in size. Computed tomography showed Irregular masses were seen in the left thyroid with a range of about 7.1 × 5.4 × 8.0 cm, and a beaded slightly enlarged lymph node with a maximum of 1.6 × 0.8 cm was discovered in the left neck. Postoperative pathologic examination also found the specific starry-sky phenomenon of Burkitt lymphoma. Moreover, immunohistochemistry also indicated that the related cellular immunophenotypic expression was also positive or negative. In particular, the proliferation rate by ki67 was almost 100% and C-MYC was also positive. After thyroidectomy, patient underwent four cycles of CHOP regimen chemotherapy. Unfortunately, the patient died as a result of the deterioration of his condition. This report provides an opportunity to review an uncommon type of PTBL in children.
