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

NTRK1/3 rearrangements have been reported in 2.3-3.4% of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and are regarded as potential therapeutic targets. Recently, the application of immunohistochemistry (IHC) to detect NTRK rearrangements has been widely discussed. The current study aimed to characterize the clinicopathological features of PTC with NTRK1/3 fusions, to examine the utility of pan-TRK IHC, and to compare IHC with fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and next-generation sequencing (NGS). In a cohort of 525 consecutive PTC cases, 60 BRAF
