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

objectiveThis study utilized the stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg) to thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) ratio to predict the long-term efficacy of

methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 960 DTC patients with a median follow-up time of 30 months (6-92 months). The median age was 44 years. All patients underwent total thyroidectomy, lymph node dissection, and at least one

resultsTSH (mU/L) levels were more concentrated at 60-90 in females (71.5%) and 30-60 in males (39.0%), while patients with younger age, more lymph node metastases, shorter time interval between surgery and the first

conclusionsFor patients with moderate-to-high-risk DTC, when sTg>7.515 ug/L and/or sTg/TSH > 0.095 before the first
