Correlation Analysis of Nodular Sonographic Parameters with Cervical Lymph Node Metastases in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma.
Article in BioMed research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common thyroid carcinoma and is prone to cervical lymph node metastases (CLNM). We aim to analyze the correlation between clinical information, ultrasonic parameters of PTC, and CLNM. Methods: 1335 patients who had pathologically confirmed unifocal PTC were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were performed to predict CLNM in PTC patients. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance. Results: Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, maximum tumor diameter and volume, and cross-sectional and longitudinal aspect ratio were related to CLNM ( Conclusions: Younger age, male, and larger tumor were high risk factors for CLNM in patients with unifocal PTC. The cross-sectional aspect ratio had a more effective predictive value for CLNM in patients with larger thyroid tumors.
