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

Background: Graves' disease (GD) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) are the most common types of autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD), and both are characterized by the infiltration of lymphocytes into the thyroid gland. Moreover, autoimmune diseases like HT have a higher risk of developing lymphoma. This study is aimed at assessing the prevalence and association of lymphoma in patients with AITD. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in King Abdulaziz Medical City, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Data were gathered from the medical records of patients aged 18 years or older who developed AITD. A total number of 140 medical records were collected, and 72 patients were included after applying in exclusion criteria. Data on the subtype, clinical-stage, treatment modality, patient status, remission, and relapse were collected for patients who developed lymphoma. Results: Among 72 patients who developed AITD, HT was diagnosed in 58 (80.6%) patients and GD in 14 (19.4%). Five (7%) patients were diagnosed with lymphoma all of whom had a history of HT. The subtypes of lymphoma were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL 3; 4.2%), follicular lymphoma 1 (1.4%), and Hodgkin's lymphoma 1 (1.4%). Conclusion: The prevalence of PTL in patients with AITD, specifically HT, was 7%. Most patients developed NHL, with DLBCL being the most common subtype. The onset of lymphoma in this study was lower than reported in the literature. All patients with PTL had HT in their backgrounds. Further national studies are warranted to explore the relationship between the two diseases to provide more insight into the comprehension of this association.
