Middle thyroid vein tumor thrombus in metastatic papillary thyroid microcarcinoma: A case report and review of literature.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAlthough papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is not considered a threatening tumor, in some cases, it can be aggressive. Metastatic thrombosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma, follicular thyroid carcinoma, Hürthle cell carcinoma, poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma and anaplastic thyroid carcinoma have been reported in the literature, but there have been no reports about PTMC. CASE SUMMARY: A 45-year-old woman presented with a thyroid mass and thrombosis in a middle thyroid vein during a physical examination. She had no symptoms, and the physical examination showed no positive signs. Subsequent ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy results indicated an atypical lesion of ambiguous significance, with some actively growing cells (TBSRTC III) and the BRAF
conclusionMiddle thyroid vein tumor thrombus is an extremely rare condition in PTMC, but it does exist. Lobectomy and thromboembolectomy may be an option for patients with thrombi in the middle vein of the thyroid, and we strongly suggest close follow-up of these patients.
