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

Thyroglossal duct cysts are one of the most common cervical congenital anomalies. They occur along the thyroid migration tract, which extends from the base of the tongue through the midline of the neck to the level of the cricoid cartilage. Thyroglossal duct cysts present as a midline neck mass and are closely associated with the hyoid bone. Here, we describe a case where two cystic structures were found just inferior to the thyroid gland and inferior to the hyoid bone, suggesting a double thyroglossal duct cyst. It is important to diagnose and surgically manage thyroglossal duct cysts as they are associated with complications, such as infection and malignancy.
