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

purposeAccurate initial staging of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) is paramount to avoid disease persistence or relapses. Neck ultrasound (US) is the gold-standard examination for lymph node staging; however, it might miss the central compartment ones. [

methodsWe retrospectively evaluated consecutive patients treated at our centre with high-risk thyroid who had had a neck US and a neck digital [

resultsEighty-two patients (61 females) were included. At the PBA, the combined approach was superior to US alone regarding Se (44% vs 19%, p < 0.05) and Acc (80% vs 72%, p < 0.05) in the central compartment nodes. At the LBA, the combined approach was superior to either method overall (43%, 37%, and 36% for combined, [

conclusionsThe combined cervical [
