Epidemiological and Pathogenic Characteristics of Benign and Malignant Thyroid Nodules Undergoing Ultrasonography for Health Checkup Population.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Purpose: To analyze the epidemiological and pathogenic characteristics of benign and malignant thyroid nodules undergoing ultrasonography for health checkup population and evaluate the value of ultrasonography in early detection of thyroid cancer. Methods: The thyroid nodules ultrasonic characteristics of 70430 examinees in different ages and genders were retrospectively analyzed according to the Chinese Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (C-TIRADS). The high-risk thyroid nodules pathological results were compared with ultrasonic C-TIRADS to analyze the value of ultrasonography in early detection of thyroid cancer. Results: The total thyroid nodules prevalence was 47.64%. Females had a significantly higher prevalence of thyroid nodules than males (52.10% vs 43.48%; Conclusion: Age and gender are closely related to thyroid nodules prevalence. Ultrasonography based on C-TIRADS has certain value in detecting thyroid nodules and screening early thyroid cancer.
