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

purposeRadioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) has become a challenge in clinical practice, particularly in China with a high incidence and undesirable survival outcome. Since the publication of first China consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of RAIR-DTC in 2019, significant and rapid advances have occurred in the field both in China and internationally. This guideline aims to inform Chinese clinicians, researchers, patients, and health policy makers on the latest evidence and recommendations, to further standardize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of RAIR-DTC.

methodsThe structured clinical questions addressed in this guideline were derived from clinical diagnostic and treatment processes, with references to study, prior guidelines, expert consensus, and systematic reviews, etc. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) was used for quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the evidence. The editorial process was completely independent of the guideline development group.

resultsThe guideline addressed 26 clinical questions and formed 35 recommendations. In this guideline, the definition criteria for RAIR-DTC was optimized, prediction and identification was based on evidence including molecular testing, dynamic biochemical changes, and multimodal imaging. Comprehensive pre-treatment clinical evaluation was emphasized and tailored for individualized decision-making. The combination of systematic therapy and surgery, and the redifferentiation followed by RAI therapy were also reviewed and updated. Molecular imaging plays a unique role in the pre-assessing and therapeutic response evaluation for RAIR-DTC.

conclusionsWe have updated and developed evidence-based recommendations with the aim of providing scientific, rigorous, and comprehensive guidance for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of RAIR-DTC patients in China. We hope to share our guideline with colleagues out of China, with the expectation of further comments and suggestions.
