[Incidentally discovered ectopic tissue in the central neck region (level VI) of the neck - A case series, retrospective analysis and literature review].
Review in Magyar onkologia, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The thymus derives from the third branchial pouch, which migrates to the mediastinum through the central region of the neck. During the migration, particles split off and develop separately. The prevalence of ectopic thymus is 20-40%. The purpose of this retrospective case series study was to investigate the prevalence of embryological tissue remnants in the central region, in patients treated for thyroid lesions. Between January 1 2018 and September 1 2020, 84 patients who underwent central neck dissection were selected. Clinicopathological data as age, gender, histopathological result and TNM stage were analyzed. Ectopic tissue in the central neck region was discovered in 28 cases. The prevalence of ectopic lesions showed increase in Stage I thyroid carcinomas. There was no significant correlation with patients' age, gender, or with the stage. We emphasize the clinicopathological role of ectopic tissues, which can occur in the central region of the neck.
