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

Key Clinical Message: Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy combined with immunohistochemistry and molecular testing could improve the diagnostic accuracy of bone metastases from follicular thyroid carcinoma, help to predict distant metastasis and prognosis. Abstract: Metastatic thyroid follicular carcinoma presenting initially with bone lesion is uncommon, its prime symptom is gradual onset, localized pain. Patient with bone metastasis who were diagnosed before thyroidectomy had a higher rate of mortality, clinician should be cautious in eliciting the clinical history and this insidious symptom in middle age group, carry out further examination. We are presenting two case reports of a follicular thyroid carcinoma with bone metastasis, ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy combined with immunohistochemistry (IHC) were carried out by our clinical team to determine the source and nature of the tumor, relevant literature was reviewed, molecular testing was discussed, we believe core needle biopsy combined with IHC and molecular testing improve the diagnostic accuracy of bone metastases from follicular thyroid carcinoma.
