An Unexpected Finding of Poorly Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma in a Toxic Thyroid Nodule.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC) is a rare entity of thyroid cancer with an intermediate clinical behavior between differentiated and anaplastic thyroid cancer. Here we present a patient who was referred to the endocrinology clinic for evaluation of hyperthyroidism and multinodular goiter. Due to presence of right toxic thyroid nodules and compressive symptoms, the patient underwent right lobectomy and isthmectomy, where surgical pathology revealed PDTC in the right thyroid lobe. Based on this unusual case of malignancy within a toxic nodule, we propose further evaluation of hot nodules with concerning features such as growth rate. Furthermore, exploration of relative sodium iodine symporter (NIS) expression in PDTC may help us better understand how iodine uptake changes as PDTC develops, which may impact our approach to assessing and treating PDTC in the future.
