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

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the value of S-Detect for predicting the malignant risk of cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules (CITNs). Methods: The preoperative prediction of 159 CITNs (Bethesda III, IV and V) were performed using S-Detect, Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System of American College of Radiology (ACR TI-RADS) and Chinese TI-RADS (C-TIRADS). First, Linear-by-Linear Association test and chi-square test were used to analyze the malignant risk of CITNs. McNemar's test and receiver operating characteristic curve were used to compare the diagnostic efficacy of S-Detect and the two TI-RADS classifications for CITNs. In addition, the McNemar's test was used to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the above three methods for different pathological types of nodules. Results: The maximum diameter of the benign nodules was significantly larger than that of malignant nodules [0.88(0.57-1.42) vs 0.57(0.46-0.81), Conclusion: The diagnostic performance of S-Detect in differentiating CITNs was similar to ACR TI-RADS and superior to C-TIRADS, especially for PTC.
