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
Thyroid disorders are the most common endocrine disorder affecting the general population. Diseases of the thyroid glands present with either an alteration of hormone secretion or as an enlargement of the thyroid gland. They vary from non-neoplastic to neoplastic lesions. The prevalence and pattern of these disorders depend on the factors like age, sex and geographic patterns. The aim of the study is to determine the histomorphological features of thyroid lesions in thyroidectomy specimens in patients who underwent thyroidectomy in tertiary care hospital. This is a retrospective study, conducted in tertiary care centre attached to government hospital. All thyroidectomy specimens received in the Department of Pathology, from January 2021 to January 2023 were included in the study. The patients who underwent thyroidectomy in view of thyroid swelling, over a period of 2 years, were selected. Data was collected from histopathological examinations done on the thyroidectomy specimens. Different histomorphological patterns were observed on microscopy. The thyroid lesions were classified into Neoplastic and Non-neoplastic based on histomorphological features and the data was segregated according to this and analysed. There was a total of 194 specimens, of which 175 were from female and 19 were from male patients. Maximum number of thyroid lesions were seen in the age group of 30-50 years. Among 194 patients, 52 (26.8%) were found to have neoplastic lesions, of whom, 25 (12.8%) patients had benign and 27(14%) patients had malignant lesion. 141(72.7%) patients had non neoplastic conditions. One patient had lymphoproliferative disorder (0.5%). In Neoplastic lesions, Among Benign lesions, Follicular adenoma was found be present in 25 patients. In malignant lesions, Papillary carcinoma was the most commonly found lesion (25 cases, 12.9%). 141(73%) patients had Non neoplastic conditions. Most commonly occurring Non neoplastic lesions were Nodular goiter (50 cases, 25.8%) followed by Colloid goiter (34cases, 17.5%), Multinodular goiter (33 cases, 17%), Hashimoto's thyroiditis (5 cases, 2.6%). Followed by Chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (4 cases, 2.1%). The frequency of carcinoma is more common in females amongst the total thyroid lesions. Papillary carcinoma was the most frequent malignancy (12.9%) among the thyroidectomy specimens. Papillary carcinoma was the commonest malignant lesion with female preponderance whereas, nodular goiter and colloid goiter were the commonest non neoplastic lesions with female preponderance.
