Redistribution of body composition in patients with Graves' disease after iodine-131 treatment.
Article in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2015. 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
objectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate body composition redistribution at 3 months after radioactive iodine therapy (RAI).
methodsEighty patients with Graves' disease (GD) for RAI and 18 volunteers were recruited. All patients underwent thyroid status test and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry at baseline and 3 months after RAI. According to the second thyroid status test, patients were divided into the following groups: A, with aggravated hyperthyroidism; B-1, with improved hyperthyroidism; B-2, with euthyroidism; and B-3, with hypothyroidism.
resultsTotal lean mass (LM) but fat mass (FM) and bone mineral content (BMC) of whole GD patients after RAI recovered to be not different with controls. Compared with baseline, in group A, FM in the left leg increased, and LM in left arm, right arm, trunk and total LM decreased (P<0.05). In B-2, FM in the head increased, and LM in the head, right arm, trunk and total LM increased (P<0.05). In B-3, FM in the right leg and total body fat percentage decreased, but FM in the head, android-to-gynoid fat ratio and body mass index increased (P<0.05); LM of all sites, weight and total mass increased (P<0.05); BMC in lumbar spine and left leg, and total BMC decreased (P<0.05). Body composition of unmentioned sites was retained after RAI in each group (P>0.05).
conclusionsReplenishment of LM gets priority rather than FM and BMC during the first 3 months after RAI, and the increase in LM starts from the upper body; head is the regional site in which FM recovery occurs first.
