Follicular Thyroid Carcinoma with Unusual Mandible Metastasis.
Article in Indian journal of nuclear medicine : IJNM : the official journal of the Society of Nuclear Medicine, India. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Follicular thyroid cancer is the second-most common type of thyroid cancer after papillary thyroid cancer. Metastases to the mandible and maxillofacial region are rare. Our study presents a 55-year-old patient who underwent total thyroidectomy for follicular thyroid cancer and subsequent radioactive iodine therapy. Sixteen years after diagnosis, elevated thyroglobulin levels suggested disease recurrence. Using advanced imaging techniques - Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan, bone scintigraphy, and posttreatment I-131 scan-an unexpected metastatic site was identified: the left mandibular condyle. A biopsy confirmed the presence of metastatic follicular thyroid cancer.
