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

Anaplastic and poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas are the two most aggressive forms of thyroid cancers and carry significant morbidity and mortality despite multimodal therapeutic approaches. Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) and, to a lesser degree, poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC) have a high tumor mutation burden, and immunologically hot tumor microenvironment when compared to well-differentiated thyroid carcinomas. As such, immunotherapy, and in particular immune checkpoint inhibitors, have been hypothesized to be effective against these cancers. This review aims to explore the biological rationale for immunotherapy in dedifferentiated thyroid carcinomas and to summarize the current evidence underlying this treatment modality.
