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

introductionThe collision of medullary (MTC) and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in the same cervical lymph node can occur, but its growth kinetics has not been reported. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 27-year-old male patient who had collision nodal metastases from PTC and sporadic MTC in the central compartment. This was treated with total thyroidectomy and central neck dissection. The collision nodal metastasis persisted and presented with a single sonographically enlarging central compartmental lymph node postoperatively. The volume of the collision nodal metastasis increased from 226 to 507 mm DISCUSSION: The growth kinetics of collision nodal metastasis from PTC and MTC can be similar to conventional PTC and MTC. Furthermore, the growth rate of such collision nodal metastases can be slow. Guided by tumor marker doubling time and regular structural imaging, surgical salvage performed after a period of active surveillance may still result in biochemical and structural remission.
