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

introduction and importanceEctopic thyroid carcinoma often occurs in the neck, and metastatic carcinoma of the nasal cavity and sinuses is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION: An 11-year-old female was admitted to the hospital for one week due to nasal pain without an obvious cause and blood in the nose. A pale red mass with a peduncle at the back end of the right nasal septum was seen during the operation. Immunohistochemistry showed low-grade papillary thyroid carcinoma. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Surgeons should be alert to the possibility of ectopic thyroid tissue and related diseases, Patients with suspected malignant lesions should undergo routine pathological examination, and even a normal thyroid should be checked for malignant changes to avoid negative outcomes.

conclusionAlthough nasal endoscopic surgery is mature, for tumors with unclear properties, it is still necessary to undergo routine pathological examination to avoid habitual errors.
