Mitochondrial Proteome Defined Molecular Pathological Characteristics of Oncocytic Thyroid Tumors.
Article in Endocrine pathology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Oncocytic thyroid tumors are characterized by an elevated mitochondrial density within the cells, distinguishing them from other thyroid tumors, exhibit distinct clinical behaviors, including increased invasiveness and iodine therapy resistance. However, the proteomic alterations in oncocytic thyroid tumors remain inadequately characterized. In this study, we analyzed 156 Asian patients with oncocytic thyroid adenomas (OA) and carcinomas (OCA) to explore their clinical, genetic, and proteomic features. Genetic testing of 73 samples revealed frequent mutations in TERT, NRAS, EIF1AX, EZH1, and HRAS, with TERT promoter mutations being exclusive to OCAs. Proteomic analysis identified 66 mitochondrial-specific proteins significantly highly expressed in oncocytic tumors than in non-oncocytic tumors. This led to the development of a thyroid oncocytic score (TOS) to quantify oncocytic characteristics. Among these proteins, isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) was substantially overexpressed in oncocytic tumors and further confirmed by immunohistochemistry in oncocytic tumor slides (n = 41) and non-oncocytic tumor slides (n = 40). Moreover, IDH2 is significantly overexpressed in OCA compared to OA highlighting its potential as a biomarker for differential diagnosis of oncocytic tumors and malignancy. These findings improve the understanding of oncocytic thyroid tumors molecular pathology and suggest IDH2 as a valuable marker for clinical management.
