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

Traumatic thyroid hemorrhage is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition. Bilateral thyroid hemorrhage is even rarer. Herein, we report a case of traumatic bilateral thyroid hemorrhage treated with nonoperative management. A 49-year-old woman with preexisting goiter presented to the emergency department after a traffic accident. She had neck swelling and tenderness; however, no stridor or respiratory distress was noted. Traumatic bilateral thyroid hemorrhage with mild tracheal deviation to the right was diagnosed after computed tomography. Nonoperative management and intensive monitoring were applied for no signs of airway compromised. The patient was discharged after 5 days of hospital stay uneventfully. 6-month follow-up revealed stationary condition and normal thyroid function tests. This rare case demonstrated successful nonoperative management on the blunt injury of the neck, complicated with bilateral thyroid hemorrhage.
