Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma in Children: Clinicopathological Profile and Outcomes of Management.
Article in World journal of surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundWe aim to analyze the clinicopathological profile and outcomes of management for children with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
methodsRelevant clinical data of children ≤ 18 years of age managed for PTC between January 2006 and July 2018 as well as details of their follow-up till December 2019 were retrospectively collected and analyzed.
resultsThere were 82 children with PTC that were managed during the study period. At presentation, 39 (47.6%) had cervical lymphadenopathy, while 9 (11%) had systemic metastasis. Majority of patients 39 (47.6%) underwent total thyroidectomy with a selective neck dissection, while total thyroidectomy alone was performed in 26 (31.7%). Following surgery, hypocalcemia was seen in 39 (47.6%): 28 (34.1%) were temporary, while 11 (13.4%) were permanent. Twenty-eight (34%) developed persistent disease after surgery and
conclusionChildren with papillary thyroid cancers present with aggressive disease, 47.6% with cervical nodal metastasis and 11% with distant metastasis in this cohort. The rate of post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia in this study is substantial, and efforts to reduce it are actively being pursued. The presence of metastatic cervical lymph node at presentation (p = 0.002) and tumor size (p = 0.014) were the only significant risk factors for persistent and metastatic disease, respectively, in this study.
