Frequency and Type of Thyroid Carcinoma in Patients With Multinodular Goiter.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06730971 (Incidence, Types and Risk Factors for Thyroid Cancer in Patients with Multinodular Goitre , Prospective Study.), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to investigate the incidence and subtype of thyroid cancer in multinodular goitre (MNG) patients who underwent total thyroidectomy. Methodology A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Khyber Teaching Hospital, screening 207 MNG patients who received complete thyroidectomies between July and December 2022. The senior consultant diagnosed thyroid cancer based on a complete history, physical examination, and laboratory and radiological studies. Ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology was performed by a senior consultant radiologist. Bethesda categories for all lesions were recorded. All patients underwent thyroidectomy, and the diagnosis of thyroid cancer was confirmed on histopathology. Results A total of 207 patients were included in the study, with a mean age of 45.55 ± 8.75 years. Out of 207 patients, 24 (11.59%) were diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Out of 62 male patients, 15 (7.25%) had thyroid cancer. Out of 145 female patients, only nine had cancer (p < 0.001). Nine patients with thyroid cancer had a body mass index (BMI) below 18, compared to only five patients with a BMI of more than 30 kg/m
