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

backgroundHighly differentiated follicular carcinoma (HDFCO) is a rare form of struma-derived thyroid-type carcinoma in ovary, defined as ovarian struma spreading beyond ovary but consisting of benign thyroid tissues. No more than 30 cases of HDFCO have been reported since it was first recognized in 2008. The clinicopathologic and molecular features of HDFCO remain unclear up till now. CASE PRESENTATION: A 38-year-old, para 1 gravida 5 woman has a long history of recurrent right ovarian cysts. Histological evaluation showed the tumor progressed from ovarian mature cystic teratoma (OMCT) to highly differentiated follicular carcinoma (HDFCO) during three relapses. Whole-exome sequencing revealed the germline FGFR4 Gly388Arg polymorphism. Repeated operations were performed to remove lesions for the first two relapses. On the third recurrence, the patient received radical surgery with subsequent thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine ablation. No evidence of disease was observed by February 2022 (8 months).

conclusionsThe germline FGFR4 Gly388Arg polymorphism may accelerate the malignant transformation of HDFCO, probably by working as a second hit in the developing spectrum.
