The use of positron emission tomography in thyroid cancer: a bibliometric analysis.
Article in Gland surgery, 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
Background: Thyroid cancer is a common malignant tumor, and its incidence is rising. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is of great value in diagnosing and monitoring thyroid cancer. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current research status of the use of PET-CT in thyroid cancer. Methods: We used the Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-E) database in the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) as the data source for the literature search. The search was carried out with ("thyroid cancer" OR "thyroid carcinoma") AND "positron emission tomography", and the results were analyzed with the bibliometric R software package. The analysis included the number of documents published in this field by each country, the cooperative relationship between countries, the number of documents published by institutions, the cooperative relationship between institutions, the number of documents published by researchers, the cooperative relationship between researchers, the location of researchers being cited, the number of documents published in journals, and the use of keywords. Results: One thousand and six hundred and seven papers were finally included, and the number of published papers each year showed a trend of fluctuating growth before reaching a peak in 2010, followed by a decreasing trend. The United States published the largest number of documents and was cited far more frequently than other countries. The research institute with the largest number of published articles was the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, USA. The cooperation relationship of authors presented a clustered distribution, and the authors in the same cluster often came from the same research institution or country. The professional journal " Conclusions: The number of studies in this field shows a decreasing trend, and PET is essential in the follow-up monitoring of thyroid cancer patients.
