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

An integrative histologic and molecular classification of thyroid tumors has become clinically relevant due to the potential role in risk stratification and selection of targeted therapy. In this review, we discuss the applications of six "next-generation" immunohistochemical markers, namely BRAF V600E (clone VE1), RAS Q61R (clone SP174), pan-TRK (clone EPR 17341), ALK (clones 5A4 or D5F3), PTEN, and β-catenin in the pathologic diagnosis and molecular classification of thyroid tumors. These biomarkers allow the in situ examination of tumor tissue and assist in the diagnosis and pathologic staging by highlighting tumor border and patterns of invasion, identifying isolated tumor cells in lymph nodes, distinguishing lymph node metastasis from benign intranodal thyroid inclusions, and diagnosing multicentric thyroid carcinomas with discordant molecular drivers. Furthermore, it can identify specific thyroid neoplasms that may occur sporadically or may be associated with hereditary syndromes. The next-generation immunohistochemistry provides a novel solution to challenging issues in thyroid pathology and fast turn-around time for accurate molecular classification and further guidance of therapeutic management.
