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

The transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) has been increasingly adopted for minimally invasive thyroid surgery and it has proved to have better cosmetic results and comparable surgical outcomes with open operations. Most reports on TORT are case series, or single center, small-sample controlled, retrospective studies, and clinical guidelines have not been established so far. To better promote the standardized implementation and widespread adoption of TORT in China, the expert panel have organized thyroid minimally invasive surgery experts and some robotic thyroidectomy experts in China jointly formulate the Chinese expert consensus on transoral vestibular approach robotic thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy (2024 edition) based on the latest relevant literature and clinical experiences from multiple centers. This consensus aims to provide guidance and reference for colleagues.
