Enlargement of a metastatic lymph node from differentiated thyroid cancer after COVID-19 vaccination.
Article in Endocrine, 2023. 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
backgroundThe massive vaccination campaign against COVID-19 has granted a high level of protection against the severe forms of the disease at the price of some mild adverse events.
objectiveTo underline that COVID-19 vaccination can induce a transient enlargement of lymph-node metastases in differentiated thyroid cancer patients. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the clinical, laboratory, and imaging features of a 60-year-old woman affected by paratracheal lymph-node relapse of Hurtle Cell Carcinoma who came to our attention after full COVID-19 vaccination because of neck swelling and pain. In April 2021, after 5 years of stable structural disease, the patient presented an enlargement of the metastatic lymph node, associated with a rise of serum thyroglobulin (from 4.6 to 14.7 pg/mL). Anti-inflammatory treatment was started and pain and swelling remitted after 15 days. At the subsequent evaluation, at neck ultrasound, the right paratracheal lesion was smaller and thyroglobulin dropped to 3.9 pg/mL.
conclusionsWe report the case of an enlargement of metastatic lymph node from differentiated thyroid cancer after COVID-19 vaccination. We warn clinicians to identify features of inflammatory response due to COVID-19 vaccination in order to prevent unwarranted surgical treatment.
