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

backgroundMedullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), the third most frequent histological type of thyroid malignancy, may be found isolated or as part of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2). One particular subtype of this autosomal dominant-transmitted syndrome includes an association with cutaneous lichen amyloidosis, although, generally, a tide genotype-phenotype correlation is described in patients who carry

methodsOur objective was to provide an endocrine perspective of a case series diagnosed with

resultsAll six patients were females with the lesion at the interscapular region. Except for two women, four of these subjects were investigated and had MTC (three of them with postoperatory confirmation). The youngest affected individual was 6 years old. The three adult females were confirmed with

conclusionsThis case series highlights the following key message: awareness of the dermatologic findings in MTC/MEN2 patients is essential since lesions such as cutaneous lichen amyloidosis might represent the skin signature of the endocrine condition even before the actual endocrine manifestations. These data add to the limited published reports with respect to this particular presentation, noting the fact that
