Papillary thyroid carcinoma with fibromatosis-like stroma: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in BMC endocrine disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundPapillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is a common neoplasia with multiple variants. One of these extremely rare and poorly described variants is PTC with fibromatosis-like stroma (PTC-FMS), a peculiar entity distinguished by its predominant mesenchymal component. This paper reviews the literature, discusses the diagnostic challenges, and the clinical and surgical implications of this type of tumor which has fewer than 30 cases reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION: We reported a case of PTC-FMS found in a 41-year-old Italian woman, who came to our Institute with a recent growth in the form of a mass on the neck. Further immunohistochemical examination showed β-catenin aberrant staining both in the nuclei and cytoplasm of the mesenchymal cells. The patient underwent total thyroidectomy and received radioactive iodine (RAI) 2 months after surgery.
conclusionGiven the possibility of recurrence of PTC-FMS and the ineffectiveness of RAI therapy, complete surgical resection represents the main treatment for this type of tumor. Despite the fact that the specific nature of these lesions has yet to be determined, guidelines for classical PTC should be followed.
