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

The incidence of thyroid metastases among patients suffering from primary colorectal cancer is rare, and only a few cases have been described in the literature. As these metastases are usually asymptomatic, they most frequently present as incidentalomas on follow-up imaging. Hereby, we present and discuss an interesting case of metastatic sigmoid adenocarcinoma of the thyroid gland, diagnosed and treated at our institution.
