Radiological features of thyroid-like low-grade nasopharyngeal papillary adenocarcinoma: case series and systematic review.
Synthesis in Neuroradiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo comprehensively summarize the clinical data and CT/MRI characteristics of thyroid-like low-grade nasopharyngeal papillary adenocarcinoma (TL-LGNPPA).
methodsTwenty-seven lesions from 25 study articles identified through a systematic review and three lesions from our institution associated with TL-LGNPPA were evaluated.
resultsThe mean age of the patients at diagnosis was 35.7 years, and the male-to-female ratio was nearly half. The chief complaint was nasal obstruction, followed by epistaxis. All patients underwent excision. None of the patients had neck nodes or distant metastases. All patients survived with no locoregional/distant recurrence during 3-93 months of follow-up. All lesions were located at the posterior edge of the nasal septum, attached to the nasopharyngeal parietal wall, and showed no laterality. The mean lesion diameter was 1.7 cm. The margins of lesions were well-defined and lobulated, followed by well-defined smooth margins. None of lesions were associated with parapharyngeal space or skull base destruction. All lesions were iso- and low-density on non-contrast CT. Adjacent skull base sclerosis was detected in 63.6% of lesions. High signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging and mostly iso-signal intensity on T1-weighted imaging compared to muscle tissue. Most lesions were heterogeneous and exhibited moderate contrast enhancement. Relatively large lesions (≥1.4 cm) tended to be more lobulated than smooth margins compared to relatively small lesions (<1.4 cm) (p = 0.016).
conclusionWe summarized the clinical and radiological features of TL-LGNPPA to facilitate accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
