A Potential Four-Gene Signature and Nomogram for Predicting the Overall Survival of Papillary Thyroid Cancer.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Although the prognosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is relatively good, some patients experience recurrence or distant metastasis after thyroidectomy and progress to radioactive iodine refractory stage. Therefore, accurate prediction of clinical outlook can aid to screen out the minority of patients with poorer prognosis and avoid excessive treatment in low-risk patients. Methods: The RNA-seq and clinical data of PTC patients was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. Multivariate and Lasso Cox regression analyses were used to construct a prognostic nomogram to predict overall survival (OS). Thereafter, quantitative RT-PCR and Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database were employed to verify the expression of key genes. Results: A four-gene risk score comprising Conclusion: The present study identified a four-gene risk signature and developed a novel nomogram, which could be regarded as a reliable prognostic model for PTC patients. The findings also revealed preliminary potential mechanisms that may influence the prognosis outcome. These results can be conducive to design personalized treatment and prognosis management in affected patients.
