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

objectiveThe aim of the study was to analyze clinical characteristics, surgical treatment, complications, and prognosis related to thyroid surgery in children and adolescents in a 10-year study at a single institution.

methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of clinical data of children and adolescents who underwent thyroid surgery due to benign thyroid disease and thyroid cancer from January 2011 to May 2020. We presented the clinical characteristics and type of surgical treatment for different thyroid diseases.

conclusionThis study demonstrated that thyroid surgery in children and adolescents is a safe and efficient procedure in the hands of experienced surgeon for adult thyroid surgery. For children and adolescents with thyroid carcinoma, our method of choice is total thyroidectomy with occasionally paratracheal neck dissection, whereas lateral cervical lymph node dissection is only necessary in fine needle aspiration positive lymph nodes. Our results according to postoperative outcomes and complications are comparable to other recently published data.
