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

backgroundCriteria for the preoperative diagnosis of non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) have not yet been confirmed. This study aimed to analyze differences in clinicopathological characteristics between follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC) subtypes to determine which parameters are relevant in differentiating NIFTP from other variants.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the records of 199 patients with a preoperative diagnosis of FVPTC who underwent thyroid surgery at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital (Seoul, Korea) from 2011 to 2015. Clinicopathological features were analyzed retrospectively

resultsThe NIFTP and invasive encapsulated FVPTC (EFVPTC) groups showed relatively benign features, with a majority of the patients categorized as Bethesda category III (25.8% and 25.6%, respectively) or IV (34.8% and 30.2%, respectively), while the infiltrative FVPTC group showed more malignant features, with more patients categorized as category V (28.6%) or VI (47.6%) (

conclusionAlthough Bethesda category was a statistically significant factor in distinguishing FVPTC subtypes, it was not effective in conclusively distinguishing NIFTP and invasive EFVPTC. Absence of
