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

purposeThis study evaluates the differences in CT imaging findings between diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the thyroid gland.

methodsThis study included 18 patients with histopathologically confirmed primary thyroid lymphoma (nine with DLBCL and nine with MALT lymphoma). All patients underwent pretreatment CT imaging. We retrospectively reviewed all images and compared the imaging findings between the two pathologies.

resultsThe maximum diameter was significantly greater in DLBCL than in MALT lymphoma (67.7 ± 17.0 mm vs. 41.0 ± 27.2 mm, p < 0.01). Diffuse type (78% vs. 11%, p < 0.01), thickening of the isthmus (78% vs. 22%, p < 0.05), invasion of surrounding tissues (78% vs. 0%, p < 0.01), and regional lymphadenopathy (44% vs. 0%, p < 0.05) were more frequent in DLBCL than in MALT lymphoma. However, preserved peripheral thyroid tissue was more frequent in MALT lymphoma than in DLBCL (78% vs. 22%, p < 0.05).

conclusionsThe maximum diameter, morphological patterns (diffuse or nodular type), thickening of the isthmus, invasion of surrounding tissues, regional lymphadenopathy, and preserved peripheral thyroid tissue were useful CT imaging features in differentiating DLBCL from MALT lymphoma of the thyroid gland.
