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

We performed this study to evaluate the associations of hypothyroidism with clinical severity and the occurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at initial diagnosis among pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). 330 children with T1DM who referred to Diabetes Clinic were enrolled. The medical records were e valuated and a blood sample was drawn from patients for measuring thyroid function and antibodies, blood glucose, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) levels. Hypothyroidism was detected in 9.6% of children with T1DM and was associated with higher rates of DKA (OR = 3.15, 95%CI = 1.48-6.71) and younger age at initial diagnosis (7.3 ± 3.2 vs. 10.1 ± 2.5, p = 0.04), higher levels of HbA1C upon enrolment (9.8 ± 2.2 vs. 8.8 ± 1.9, p = 0.02) and the requirement for higher insulin doses to control the disease (0.9 ± 0.42 vs. 0.81 ± 0.2, p = 0.03) compared to children with T1DM and normal thyroid function. Additionally children with T1DM and hypothyroidism had significantly higher rates of anti-TPO antibodies (p < 0.001), consanguinity in their parents (p =0.01), and family history of diabetes mellitus (p = 0.02) in their first degree relatives. In conclusion autoimmune hypothyroidism is prevalent among children with T1DM and is associated with a more aggressive disease at initial presentation, poorly controlled T1DM, and requirement for higher Insulin doses for controlling the disease.
