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: To investigate the prognostic factors of patients with persistent/recurrent differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) especially with external invasive persistent recurrent DTC after comprehensive treatment. Methods: The clinical data of 525 patients with persistent/recurrent DTC who underwent surgical treatment from August 2011 to June 2021 in the Department of Head and Neck Surgery of Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) of persistent/recurrent DTC, especially external invasive persistent/recurrent DTC were analyzed. Results: Among 525 patients, 318 patients underwent thyroidectomy, 359 patients underwent central lymph node dissection, and 409 patients underwent lateral cervical lymph node dissection. Among 493 followed-up patients, 5-year OS and RFS were 95.10% and 89.60%, 8-year OS and RFS were 91.80% and 81.30%. Cox regression analysis showed that in patients with persistent/recurrent DTC after comprehensive treatment, age ≥55 years at reoperation after recurrence, male gender and distant metastasis were independent risk factors of OS (all P<0.05); while the simultaneous invasion of thyroid and lymph nodes, multiple organ invasion and the number of previous operations ≥2 were independent risk factors of RFS (all P<0.05). In patients with external invasive persistent/recurrent DTC after comprehensive treatment, age ≥55 years at reoperation after recurrence and male gender were independent risk factors of OS (both P<0.05); while multiple organ invasion and the number of previous operations ≥2 were independent risk factors of RFS (both P<0.05). Conclusions: Male patients aged 55 years old and above, with distant metastasis have a higher risk of poorer prognosis in persistent/recurrent DTC; while patients with simultaneous external invasion of thyroid and lymph nodes, multiple organ invasion and the number of previous operations ≥2 are more likely to relapse. For external invasive persistent/recurrent DTC, male patients aged 55 years old and above have a higher risk of poorer prognosis; while patients with multiple organ invasion and the number of previous operations ≥2 are more likely to have recurrence.
