Papillary thyroid carcinoma: an interesting case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
The most common neoplasm is thyroid carcinoma, which can be categorized into papillary, follicular, medullary, undifferentiated, and anaplastic cancers based on histological features (ATC). Papillary thyroid carcinoma accounts for 70-80% of thyroid cancer cases and 1% of all malignancies. This disease entity is notorious for spreading to nearby lymph nodes, especially the cervical lymph nodes, and may manifest as a developing mass on the side of the neck. However, because of the palpable mass, these lesions usually become apparent and are detected quickly. We are reporting a case of an 18-year-old female, who presented with midline neck swelling. Papillary thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed on histopathology. The patient underwent total thyroidectomy with lymphadenectomy followed by therapeutic radioactive iodine ablation and received T4 suppression treatment. The patient was advised to have regular follow-ups with other systemic examinations. Due to various forms of thyroid carcinoma that raise suspicion of a possible familial cancer, early diagnosis, and thorough evaluation are required.
