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

Thyroid nodules are common, with a prevalence of approximately 70% on thyroid ultrasonography; approximately 5% of these nodules are malignant. Distinguishing malignant and benign thyroid nodules is critical for clinical management. Clinicians can judiciously select patients for fine-needle aspiration, understand the cytology results and subsequent follow-up, and determine surveillance strategies for non-operated nodules. The challenge in selecting thyroid nodules for fine-needle aspiration is to avoid the diagnosis of small, clinically insignificant cancers without missing more severe diseases. The molecular characteristics of thyroid nodules are critical for their diagnosis and treatment. However, identifying these characteristics is costly and challenging because of unexpected technical difficulties. An imaging association model based on molecular features will bridge the essential link between molecular characteristics and the computed tomography radiomics, then improve diagnostic efficiency, reducing invasive examinations.
