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

Primary small cell thyroid carcinomas are extremely rare and there is still debate about their classification as a distinct disease entity. The present case report reports a small cell carcinoma (SCC) combined with poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC) in a 34 year old man. The tumor consisted of ~80% PDTC and ~20% SCC. The PDTC component was positive for cytokeratin and thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1), and negative for calcitonin, chromogranin and synaptophysin. The SCC component was positive for synaptophysin and CD56, and negative for calcitonin, chromogranin and TTF-1. Seven months after thyroid surgery, two new lung nodules were detected. Histologically and immunohistochemically, the lung tumors were similar to the SCC component of the thyroid carcinoma. The mutational status of cancer-related genes was assessed using targeted next-generation sequencing in both the thyroid and lung, which identified similar genetic alterations. The histogenesis of SCC was evaluated through NGS analysis of the two cancer components.
