Bilateral Chylothorax Following Total Thyroidectomy with Neck Dissection for Papillary Thyroid Cancer: Case report.
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Bilateral chylothorax is a rare condition that occurs after a thyroidectomy and neck dissection, which can lead to severe morbidity and, potentially, death, if not managed properly. We report a rare complication of neck surgery and subsequent bilateral pleural effusion in a 35-year-old female patient who presented at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital in 2018 with shortness of breath and respiratory distress. The bilateral pleural effusion and related symptoms occurred one week after a total thyroidectomy with central and left lateral neck dissection. The patient was managed conservatively and subsequently recovered.
