Primary thyroid hemangioma, a rare diagnosis in a patient with a painless neck mass.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The aim of this case report is to demonstrate a case of primary thyroid hemangioma in a 62-year-old female who presented with a painless neck mass, treated with right hemithyroidectomy and diagnosed by surgical biopsy. Thyroid hemangiomas are rare, benign lesions which present a diagnostic challenge given the lack of specific imaging findings and clinical manifestations associated with them. However, accurate recognition of these lesions is important and can facilitate conservative, rather than surgical, management strategies. In this report, we discuss a case in a patient whose laboratory assessment raised concern for a thyroid paraganglioma, leading to surgical resection of what was ultimately a benign thyroid hemangioma. We also review the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, differential diagnostic considerations, and imaging characteristics of thyroid hemangiomas across multiple modalities and discuss strategies for accurately diagnosing these lesions.
