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

Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer. There are various histopathological types requiring different therapeutic approaches and having variable prognoses. The objective of this study was to determine the pattern of thyroid cancers in Nigeria. The systematically searched databases were African Journal Online, Google Scholar, PubMed, and SCOPUS. The pre-print databases Research Square, SciELO, and medRxiv were also systematically searched. Moreover, the available grey literature was equally searched. The quality of the selected studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. The meta-analysis was done using Meta XL version 5.3. The DerSimonian Laird random effect model was used for the meta-analysis. The heterogeneity of the selected studies was determined using the I
