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

Tuberculosis is a common disease in India but even then Primary tuberculosis of Thyroid gland is an extremely rare clinical scenario. Diagnosis of this rare disease requires very high level of clinical suspicion as the clinical features have no distinct characteristics and usually mimic with bacterial thyroiditis, thyrotoxicosis, thyroid carcinoma, lymphoma etc. Historically most of patients were diagnosed through histopathology in post operative thyroidectomy specimens. Here we present a case of primary tuberculosis of thyroid which was initially suspected to be a case of deep neck space abscess and was diagnosed by cartridge based nucleic acid amplification test (CBNAAT) through fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of gland.
