Consumptive hypothyroidism in a two months old infant secondary to hepatic haemangiomas.
Article in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The case described in this report is of a two-month-old boy who presented with severe hypothyroidism. The infant also had multiple hepatic haemangiomas. The cause of hypothyroidism was found to be due to consumption of the hormone by the tumour. The patient was put on high dose of thyroxin and medical treatment for the haemangiomas. He was followed for three years, cured from the haemangiomas, was no more suffering from hypothyroidism, and all treatments were stopped. More details about this case and similar other cases have been discussed.
