Evaluation of benign neck swellings management at a tertiary care setting.
Article in Bioinformation, 2026. 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
Benign neck swellings are a common presentation in head and neck outpatient clinics and require accurate diagnosis and timely management for optimal outcomes. This one-year prospective observational study conducted at a tertiary-care hospital on 120 patients aimed to identify the common causes of benign neck swellings, evaluate diagnostic tools, and document management strategies. Thyroid-related swellings were the most common etiology, particularly among females in the third and fourth decades of life. Clinical evaluation, ultrasonography, and fine-needle aspiration cytology showed high concordance with histopathology, while surgical management was mainly used for structural lesions and medical therapy for inflammatory conditions. This study advances knowledge by establishing thyroid-related swellings as the predominant benign neck swelling and by supporting a structured diagnostic approach integrating clinical assessment, ultrasonography, and FNAC for accurate diagnosis and management.
