A modified, single-incision, gasless, endoscopic thyroidectomy and bilateral central neck dissection via axillary approach technique for bilateral papillary thyroid microcarcinoma: A preliminary report.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Our objective was to assess the viability and oncological security of a gasless, transaxillary single-incision endoscopic procedure for performing total thyroidectomy and bilateral central neck dissection (TT + BCND). This study focused on patients diagnosed with bilateral papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). Method: Between April 2020 and November 2021, 22 patients with bilateral PTMC underwent single-incision, gasless, transaxillary endoscopic TT + BCND. The patients' clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical completeness and complications were analyzed. Result: Single-incision, gasless, transaxillary endoscopic TT + BCND was successful performed in all patients. The median (IQR) total surgical time was 143 (85-160) min. Only two patients experienced transient unilateral RLN palsy or transient hypocalcemia. All these complications resolved within 1 month after surgery. The median duration of hospital stay after surgery was 4 (3-4.5) days. The median hospitalization expense for these patients was 3848 (3781-4145) USD. The median number of lymph node yielded was 10.5 (8-15). The cosmetic outcomes were well-received by all individuals. Conclusion: In certain cases, gasless, transaxillary endoscopic TT + BCND procedure performed through a single incision proved to be a secure alternative for managing bilateral PTMC.
