Pre-contrast hyperattenuating metastatic lymph node on computed tomography due to iodide accumulation in a dog with thyroid carcinoma.

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
An 11-year-old Bichon Frise presented with a right cervical mass. Computed tomography revealed a thyroid mass without significant lymphadenopathy; however, the caudal portion of the ipsilateral retropharyngeal lymph node exhibited marked hyperattenuation on pre-contrast images. Histopathology of this lymph node confirmed the presence of metastasis from thyroid adenocarcinoma. The caudal portion of the lymph node displayed dense tumor cells with abundant sodium/iodide symporter-positive cells. The observed hyperattenuation of the lymph node was presumed to result from iodide deposition associated with the metastasis of the thyroid tumor. This case suggests that even in the absence of lymph node enlargement, hyperattenuating lymph nodes should raise suspicion for metastasis in dogs with thyroid tumors. However, as this is a single case, further studies are needed to determine the broader applicability of this finding.
