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
objectiveTo evaluate whether a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach improves adherence to the 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) postoperative surveillance guidelines in pediatric thyroid cancer patients.
methodsA retrospective review at our institution was performed on pediatric patients who had thyroidectomy for papillary or follicular thyroid cancer between 2017 and 2024. Patients who were treated from 2017 to 2020 (pre-MDT) were compared to those treated from 2021 to 2024 (post-MDT), following the establishment of the MDT in January 2021. Data collected included timing of postoperative thyroglobulin (Tg) tests, iodine-123 (
resultsFrom 2017 to 2024, 47 patients were identified (n = 28 from 2017 to 2020; n = 19 from 2021 to 2024). Median age was 15 years. DISCUSSION: There were significantly fewer low-risk patients who received IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Our study supports the importance of the MDT in the postoperative care of pediatric thyroid cancer patients.
