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

Thyroid hormone (TH) insufficiency causes variable hearing impairment and mental deficiency in humans. Rodents lacking TH have congenital hearing deficiency that has been attributed to physiologic, morphologic, and developmental abnormalities of the auditory system. We examined four genetically defined strains of hypothyroid mice for development of hearing and response to TH replacement initiated during late gestation and continued through six weeks of age. Auditory brain stem response studies showed variable hearing impairment in homozygous mutants of each strain at three weeks of age relative to normal littermates. Mutants from three of the strains still had hearing deficiencies at six weeks of age. TH-enriched diet significantly improved hearing in three-week-old mutants of each strain relative to untreated mutants. Differences in the level of hearing impairment between the Prop1df and Pit1dw mutants, which have defects in the same developmental pathway, were determined to be due to genetic background modifier genes. Further physiologic and morphologic studies in the Cgatm1Sac strain indicated that poor hearing was due to cochlear defects. We conclude that TH supplement administered during the critical period of hearing development in mice can prevent deafness associated with congenital hypothyroidism of heterogeneous genetic etiology.
