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

The objective of this study was to identify potential biomarkers and possible metabolic pathways of malignant and benign thyroid nodules through lipidomics study. A total of 47 papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) and 33 control check (CK) were enrolled. Plasma samples were collected for UPLC-Q-TOF MS system detection, and then OPLS-DA model was used to identify differential metabolites. Based on classical statistical methods and machine learning, potential biomarkers were characterized and related metabolic pathways were identified. According to the metabolic spectrum, 13 metabolites were identified between PTC group and CK group, and a total of five metabolites were obtained after further screening. Its metabolic pathways were involved in glycerophospholipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, alpha-linolenic acid metabolism, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis, Phosphatidylinositol signaling system and the metabolism of arachidonic acid metabolism. The metabolomics method based on PROTON nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) had great potential for distinguishing normal subjects from PTC. GlcCer(d14:1/24:1), PE-NME (18:1/18:1), SM(d16:1/24:1), SM(d18:1/15:0), and SM(d18:1/16:1) can be used as potential serum markers for the diagnosis of PTC.
