Cystic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cystic nodule is an unusual presentation of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC), seen in less than 10% of cases. Even by ultrasound, finding a thyroid cyst carries a less than 5% chance of malignancy. We present a case of a 45-year-old male, who came in for incidental finding of a palpable thyroid mass with no significant predisposing history. Thyroidectomy was done and immunohistochemical staining confirmed it to be papillary thyroid cancer. He underwent high dose radiation therapy with post therapy whole body scan showing no evidence of radioavid foci aside from the thyroid bed. The malignant potential of cystic nodule(s) should never be overlooked in certain select patients even if it carries a low chance of malignancy. The diagnosis of PTC relies primarily on the typical nuclear features, however in cases of histologic uncertainty, immunohistochemical stains such as HBME-1 may be used to help classify unusual presentations of PTC. Treatment and monitoring of Cystic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma follows the conventional guideline on solid PTC.
