Hydatid Cyst Disease of the Thyroid Gland: A Rare Case Report.
Article in International journal of endocrinology and metabolism, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Hydatid cysts caused by Case Presentation: A 26-year-old female patient presented with complaints of pain and swelling in the anteroposterior region of the neck, predominantly on the right side. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) from the nodule seen on ultrasound (US) of the thyroid gland was reported to be suspicious for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and the patient underwent bilateral total thyroidectomy. In the postoperative histopathological examination, a hydatid cyst was confirmed in the thyroid gland. Conclusions: Thyroid hydatid cysts, though rare, require high clinical suspicion in endemic regions. Imaging (US/MRI) and serology are pivotal for preoperative diagnosis, while FNA is contraindicated. Complete surgical excision with adjuvant albendazole ensures optimal outcomes. Public health measures, including dog deworming and community education, are critical to disrupting the parasite's lifecycle.
