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

Objective: Antithyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) is a potential tumour marker for detecting differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) recurrence, but insufficient data have supported its clinical applications. Our study aimed to describe the changing trend of TgAb after surgery and identify the relationship between this trend and clinical outcomes. Patients and Methods: We reviewed the electronic records of 1,686 DTC patients who had undergone total thyroidectomy (TT) and radioactive iodine ( Results: Among all 1,686 patients, 393 (23.65%) were TgAb positive (>40 IU/ml) preoperatively. The TgAb level in Group A decreased significantly after surgery and Conclusions: For preoperative TgAb-positive DTC patients, variations in TgAb > -77.9% at 6 months after
