Subcentimetric Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: Does the Diagnosis Kind Impact Prognosis?
Article in Cureus, 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
introductionSubcentimetric papillary thyroid carcinoma (SPTC) (papillary thyroid carcinoma with less than 10 mm in size) usually presents an excellent prognosis, with few aggressive reported cases. Given the globally increased incidence of SPTC, physicians are struggling with the need to identify prognostic factors to stratify SPTC. The aim was to compare clinicopathological variables and prognosis between clinically and incidentally diagnosed SPTC. Materials and methodsː This is a retrospective observational study on patients with SPTC who underwent thyroidectomy between 2002 and 2015. Two groups were considered: G1 (n=60 (61.9%)), clinical diagnosis (Bethesda III-VI cytology in the thyroid tumor/in cervical lymphadenopathies) and G2 (n=37 (38.1%)), incidental diagnosis (thyroidectomy for benign thyroid pathology). The histological material was reviewed, and molecular analysis of the
