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 hormones have important effects on cellular development, growth, and metabolism and are necessary for the healthy function of almost all tissues. Hyperthyroid patients with excess thyroid hormone levels experience tachycardia, fatigue, muscle wasting, and osteoporosis. However, although high thyroid hormone levels have adverse effects, efforts have been made to harness the beneficial effects, such as reduced serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, elevated basal metabolic rate, and weight loss. Thyroid hormones interact with nuclear thyroid hormone receptors (TRs), and cholesterol levels are reduced through TRβ, whereas extrahepatic adverse actions are primarily connected to TRα. Thus, to develop a useful compound for clinical use, efforts have been focusing on developing compounds with isomer-specific functions based on the structure of thyroid hormones, i.e., thyromimetics that are liver and/or TRβ specific. In this short review, we discuss the development of the early thyromimetics that enabled, through modern molecular techniques, the progress towards improved design of TRβ-selective thyromimetics. We also address the early promise shown in human clinical trials and the current status of these drugs and other emerging compounds.
