Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma with contralateral large humerus metastasis and cervical lymph node metastasis: A case report.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) that metastasizes to bone, especially metastasizes to contralateral humerus with so large mass, is rarely reported before. Case report: We presented a 50-year-old female patient with a large painful mass in the right humerus for 5 years, presenting with swelling of the right shoulder with limited mobility. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) showed a large mass in the right humerus, bilateral lung lesions, and enlarged lymph nodes in the right supraclavicular fossa. Right humerus lesion biopsy and immunohistochemical evaluations confirmed that the lesion originated from the thyroid tissue. Then, the thyroid ultrasonography showed a hypo-echoic solid nodule with an irregular taller-than-wide shape in the upper of left thyroid lobe and enlarged lymph nodes with the absence of fatty hilum in the contralateral right IV compartment. The total thyroidectomy and cervical lymph node dissection were undertaken; the histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of PTMC with contralateral cervical lymph node metastasis. Conclusion: We reported a case of PTMC with contralateral large humerus and cervical lymph node metastasis and demonstrated the PET/CT images of the metastatic large humerus and thyroid ultrasonographic appearances of the PTMC and enlarged cervical lymph node.
