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

Intravenous tumor extension is a well-recognized phenomenon occurring in various malignancies but is a relatively rare entity in thyroid carcinoma. In patients with poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (pDTC), I-131 avid superior vena cava tumor (SVC) thrombus at initial presentation is infrequent and potential life threatening. Tumor thrombus can form either due to direct vascular extension of the primary mass or by hematogenous spread. Hybrid nuclear imaging can differentiate the two entities, which can impact the treatment plan of the patient. We present images of an interesting case of evolution of SVC thrombus in a 46-year-old woman with diagnosed pDTC over the span of two years.
