Thyroid Abscess and Jugular Vein Thrombosis Caused by a Migratory Fish Bone: A Case Report and Literature Review.

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 present a rare case of a migratory fish bone into the thyroid gland with abscess formation and internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis. A 73-year-old woman was referred to our emergency department due to several syncopal attacks, a ground-level fall, drowsiness, and left-sided neck swelling, with a history of consuming fish three months ago. CT scan and ultrasound revealed abscess formation at the left side of the neck, a foreign body within the left lobe of the thyroid, and left IJV thrombosis. The fish bone was removed successfully, and a left thyroid lobectomy was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the IJV reopened without further intervention. Fish bone migration into the thyroid gland is an unusual event, and its possibility should be considered, especially when the patient has persistent symptoms with negative findings on examination. In such cases, appropriate imaging and advanced interventions are essential for timely diagnosis and management.
