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

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the predominant pathological type among thyroid malignancies, is responsible for the sharp increase in thyroid cancer. Although PTC is an indolent tumor with good prognosis, 60-70% of patients still have early cervical lymph node metastasis, typically in the central compartment. Whether there is central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) or not directly affects the formulation of preoperative surgical procedures, given that such metastases have been tied to compromised overall survival and local recurrence. However, detecting CLNM before operation can be challenging due to the limited sensitivity of preoperative approaches. Prophylactic central lymph node dissection (PCLND) in the absence of clinical evidence of CLNM poses additional surgical risks. This study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the risk factors related to CLNM in PTC patients. A key focus is on utilizing multimodal ultrasound (US) for accurate prognosis of preoperative CLNM and to highlight the distinctive role of US-based characteristics for predicting CLNM.
