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

Background: Lymph node metastasis is widespread in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Patients are more vulnerable than those with central lymph node metastasis if they have lateral neck lymph node metastasis (LLNM). There are few researches focus on the correlation between clinical characteristics and genetic profile of PTC with LLNM. In this study, we aimed to analyze the clinical and genetic features of PTC with LLNM. Methods: A total of 160 primary tumor samples derived from PTC patients with LLNM were involved. Targeted next-generation sequencing was carried out on all samples with 57 known thyroid-cancer-related genes. The associations between genomic alternations and clinical characteristics of PTC with LLNM were statistically evaluated. Results: The median age of patients was 37 years, ranging from 5 to 77 years and the female/male ratio was 1.86. The most frequently altered genes in our series were Conclusions: PTC patients with LLNM is characterized by a high rate of BRAF mutation. Due to the observed clinicopathological differences in those patients among different alterations, further prospective studies are needed to verify our results and to evaluate the most suitable treatment strategies.
