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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) for a better understanding of the disease and a more accurate PTL diagnosis, thereby preventing misdiagnosis and mistreatment.

methodsThe clinical manifestations, biochemical examination, ultrasound examination, imaging examination, pathologic examination, diagnosis, and treatment of four PLT patients admitted to the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 2010 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.

resultsDiffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) expressing cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20) were detected in all four PTL patients. Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) with increased anti-thyroglobulin antibodies (TGAb) occurred in two PTL patients, while antithyroid peroxidase autoantibody (TPOAb) was increased in three cases. All four patients underwent surgical and chemoradiotherapy treatments. Patients were without tumors during the follow-up ranging from 8 to 55 months.

conclusionPTL is a primary extranodal lymphoma of the thyroid and is mainly derived from B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The pathogenesis of PTL remains unclear, but it is closely related to HT. Clinical diagnosis in this study was determined by either needle biopsy or surgical resection.
