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

Lipoid lesions of the thyroid gland are very rare. Fat-containing thyroid lesions include a variety of clinical-pathological disorders, such as adenolipomas, thyrolipomatosis, and lipomatous tissue, in the event of amyloidosis. Herein, we report a case of diffuse thyrolipomatosis with amyloidosis and incidentally detected papillary carcinoma of the thyroid in a 51-year-old female patient who clinically presented with a multinodular goiter. Amyloidosis in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid is very rare and can be primary or secondary amyloidosis. Thyrolipomatosis, amyloid goiter, and papillary carcinoma of the thyroid is a rare combination, and to our knowledge, this is the third reported case in the literature. The association of amyloidosis and the rare occurrence of a differentiated carcinoma have to be considered, as in the case of thyroid lipomatosis.
