Development of medullary thyroid carcinoma on a toxic nodule: about an exceptional case.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report the case of a 60-year-old hypertensive female patient who presented with an anterior neck swelling associated with local compression signs. TSH levels were in favor of hyperthyroidism. Cervical ultrasound showed two nodules classified as EU-TIRADS III, one of which, located at the lower right pole, was hyperfunctioning on I-123 scintigraphy. After total thyroidectomy, the histopathological study confirmed that the toxic nodule corresponded to a medullary thyroid carcinoma. Calcitonin levels were 115.6 ng/L (N < 10 ng/L). The staging workup, as well as the MEN screening, were unremarkable. An extensive lymph node dissection was performed, revealing no lymph node involvement.
