Synchronous occurrence of papillary thyroid carcinoma and medullary thyroid carcinoma in the setting of Hashimoto's thyroiditis: a case report with literature review.

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
Background: The incidence of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) originating from parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland is relatively low among all thyroid cancers, and MTC combined with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is even rarer. In this article, we report a case of MTC combined with PTC on the background of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and discuss several points surrounding the diagnosis and management. Case Description: A 59-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with the main cause of "right neck pain for 6 months and right thyroid nodules for 20 days". Ultrasound showed multiple Thyroid Imaging-Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) grade 3 hypoechoic nodules in the right lobe, and a hypoechoic nodule in the proximal isthmus of the right lobe, with a poorly defined border and TI-RADS grade 4a. No obvious enlarged lymph nodes were seen in the anterior neck. Preoperative calcitonin (Ctn) was found to be 614.9 pg/mL (normal range, 0.00-6.40 pg/mL). Postoperative histopathologic findings returned: papillary carcinoma of the right thyroid gland, invading the peritoneum of the thyroid gland, and another more diffuse growth nodule was seen, which was consistent with medullary carcinoma of the thyroid gland; with a background of HT. The patient was successfully discharged from the hospital after surgical treatment. Conclusions: HT with PTC and MTC is an extremely rare disease. By reporting the diagnosis and treatment of this case, this article can provide experience for subsequent clinical studies.
