Congenital hypothyroidism and the importance of universal newborn screening.
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the most common preventable causes of mental retardation in children. Early diagnosis and treatment prevent the devastating outcome of mental retardation. Clinical features of CH are subtle and are not evident early in the neonatal period. Therefore, universal newborn screening (NS) is effective in detecting CH and implementing early treatment. This article reviews the current literature regarding the epidemiology, etiology, classification, clinical features, diagnosis of primary CH, and the management of abnormal newborn screen as well as treatment and prognosis of primary CH and outlines the importance of universal newborn screening in preventing mental retardation.
