Preoperative Nodal US Features for Predicting Recurrence in N1b Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma.
Article in Cancers, 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
This study aimed to investigate whether preoperative ultrasonographic (US) features of metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) are associated with tumor recurrence in patients with N1b papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). We enrolled 692 patients (mean age, 41.9 years; range, 6-80 years) who underwent total thyroidectomy and lateral compartment LN dissection between January 2009 and December 2015 and were followed-up for 12 months or longer. Clinicopathologic findings and US features of the index tumor and metastatic LNs in the lateral neck were reviewed. A Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportion hazard model were used to analyze the recurrence-free survival rates and features associated with postoperative recurrence. Thirty-seven (5.3%) patients had developed recurrence at a median follow-up of 66.5 months. On multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, male sex (hazard ratio [HR], 2.277; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.131, 4.586;
