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

backgroundPapillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) usually has an indolent clinical course, yet a subset of patients might show an aggressive course. Thus, better stratification of at-risk patients is mandatory for proper management. Solute carrier family 34 member 2 (SLC34A2) is an independent prognostic indicator in several cancers. However, only a few studies have been conducted to evaluate the prognostic value of SLC34A2 in PTC, with none of them assessing its immunohistochemical (IHC) expression in a large cohort of patients with PTC or exploring its possible relationship with tumor progression.

resultsHigh SLC34A2 expression significantly correlated with important adverse clinicopathological parameters of PTC-i.e., late tumor stage, positive extrathyroid extension, tumor size  >  4 cm, and age  ≥  55 years (

conclusionsHigh SLC34A2 IHC expression correlated with adverse clinicopathological prognostic parameters. Furthermore, SLC34A2 was identified as an independent factor for DFS that could serve to improve risk stratification of PTC patients for better management.
