Predictive value of hematologic parameters and clinicopathological features of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma and anaplastic thyroid carcinoma.
Article in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposePoorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC) and anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) are rare, aggressive thyroid cancers with poor prognosis. At present, there are a limited number of research reports on PDTC and ATC. The study aimed to analysis the predictive value of hematologic parameters and clinicopathological features of PDTC and ATC.
methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 67 patients at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital from 2007 to 2019. We analyzed the clinicopathological features and survival outcomes of PDTC and ATC.
resultsThis study showed that positive D-dimer, a high NLR, and a high PLR were more common in death patients. At the end of follow-up, 22 (32.8%) patients were alive at the time of study and 45 (67.2%) patients died from thyroid carcinoma. Disease-related death rates were 93.8% in ATC and 42.9% in the PDTC group. The median overall survival (OS) was 2.5 (0.3-84) months for patients with ATC, and 56 (3-113) months of PDTC patients. Univariate analysis showed that age at diagnosis and surgery were associations with OS in ATC patients, what's more, age at diagnosis, a high NLR, a high PLR, and positive D-dimer were associations with OS in PDTC patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that age at diagnosis was an independent association with OS in ATC patients.
conclusionsThe hematologic parameters and clinicopathological features may provide predictive value of prognosis for patients with PTDC and ATC.
