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

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) plays a crucial role in the treatment of benign thyroid nodules by offering a minimally invasive alternative to surgical interventions. Nodule rupture is an uncommon complication of RFA. We present a case of nodule rupture and hyperthyroidism after RFA 41 days in a 45-year-old male patient. The neck ultrasound revealed the disruption of the thyroid nodule capsule and a mass adjacent to the thyroid nodule. Thyroid function tests suggested of hyperthyroidism. The patient was received conservative treatment. Follow-up, the biochemical tests showed TSH and FT4 returned to normal limits 2 weeks later. Five months after radiofrequency ablation shows the thyroid nodule was decrease 92% volume compared to the volume immediately postablation and the soft tissue lesion in the right neck region was completely regressed.
