Relationship between perioperative thyroid function and acute kidney injury after thyroidectomy.
Observational study in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Thyroid dysfunction may alter kidney function via direct renal effects and systemic haemodynamic effects, but information on the effect of thyroid function on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) following thyroidectomy remains scarce. We reviewed the medical records of 486 patients who underwent thyroidectomy between January 2010 and December 2014. Thyroid function was evaluated based on the free thyroxine or thyroid stimulating hormone levels. The presence of postoperative AKI was determined using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. AKI developed in 24 (4.9%) patients after thyroidectomy. There was no association between preoperative thyroid function and postoperative AKI. Patients with postoperative hypothyroidism showed a higher incidence of AKI than patients with normal thyroid function or hyperthyroidism (19.4%, 6.7%, and 0%, respectively; P = 0.044). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male sex (OR, 4.45; 95% CI, 1.80-11.82; P = 0.002), preoperative use of beta-blockers (OR, 4.81; 95% CI, 1.24-16.50; P = 0.016), low preoperative serum albumin levels (OR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.11-0.76; P = 0.011), and colloid administration (OR, 5.18; 95% CI, 1.42-18.15; P = 0.011) were associated with postoperative AKI. Our results showed that postoperative hypothyroidism might increase the incidence of AKI after thyroidectomy.
