Article in Intensive care medicine, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06660823 (Role of Levothyroxine Supplementation in Delayed Recovery Following Cardiac Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThe clinical benefit of tri-iodothyrinone (T(3)) replacement following congenital heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is not clear in unselected cohorts of children. Infants with more marked thyroid hormone suppression or prolonged post-CPB recovery may benefit from T(3) replacement. This study aimed to identify infants at risk of more marked suppression by examining the relationship between organ support parameters during CPB and post-operative thyroid hormone levels. DESIGN AND

settingProspective observational study in a tertiary referral centre for congenital heart surgery. PATIENTS: 36 infants less than 12 months of age were recruited following CPB. MEASUREMENTS AND

resultsThyroid hormone levels were measured on admission to the intensive care unit and on post-operative days 1 and 2. Increasing CPB time was associated with decreasing admission free T(3) and thyroid-stimulating hormone. Younger, smaller infants had lower admission levels of free T(3) on univariant analysis. Infants who continued to require ventilation 48 h after admission to the ICU had a mean free T(3) level on post-operative day 2 that was 0.9 pmol/l lower than in those who had been extubated.

conclusionsProspective studies of T(3) replacement in selected young infants (less than 3 months) with long CPB time (greater than 120 min) during congenital heart surgery are warranted.
