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

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common malignant tumour of the thyroid and it is often found in association with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). This concomitance is still under debate. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma. Two thousand two hundred eighteen patients underwent thyroidectomy in our department between January 2015 and January 2020. Of these, 435 patients had surgery for papillary thyroid carcinoma and form the basis of our studies. The association between PTC and HT was found in 180 patients (41.4%), mostly represented in the female group (78.9%), with a lower median age than patients with PTC without HT. In comparison to patients with PTC alone, the PTC-HT group had less invasive and smaller tumours, as well as less lymph node involvement. Moreover, tumours of patients with PTC-HT were diagnosed earlier. Our data showed that Hashimoto's thyroiditis may be considered a protective factor when PTC develops. Furthermore, we concluded that patients with PTC and HT had a better prognosis and a lower risk of recurrence than those that did not have HT.
