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

Background: To investigate the prevalence of thyroid nodules among medical staff and health check-up population in a Level-A hospital (Primary-level hospital) in Jinan City and analyze its influencing factors. Methods: A total of 5812 cases from the two groups were screened. Results: The average age of medical staff was (36.20±9.11) years old, and the total prevalence was 48.5%. The average age of the healthcare population was (57.89±12.51) years old, and the total prevalence rate was 63.9%, with statistical significance between the two groups ( Conclusion: There are certain differences in the prevalence of thyroid nodules between the two groups. Age and occupation are important influencing factors. While age is uncontrollable, active regulation of emotional status caused by occupational factors has important clinical guiding significance for reducing the prevalence of thyroid nodules and reducing the social medical burden.
