The impact of obesity on thyroidectomy outcomes: a case-matched study.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Obesity is a well-known public health concern in Western World. Accordingly, an elevated number of obese patients undergo thyroidectomy every year. We aim to assess the impact of obesity on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes of patients who undergo thyroidectomy. 1228 patients underwent thyroidectomy at our department between January 2021 and September 2021. We divided patients into two groups according to body mass index (BMI): non-obese (BMI < 30 kg/m
