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

Though aetiology of lateral neck masses is complex, branchial cleft cyst is the second most common congenital lesions of the neck next only to thyroglossal duct cysts. Rarely ectopic thyroid tissue within a branchial cleft cyst may develop into primary papillary carcinoma, and even more rarely it may harbour metastases of primary thyroid papillary carcinoma. We report a rare case of lateral cystic neck mass in a 24-year-old female patient diagnosed as metastatic PTC. The patient was diagnosed after she underwent surgical excision of branchial cleft cyst. Later prospectively the patient underwent total thyroidectomy which revealed papillary thyroid micro invasive carcinoma.
