Relationship between Thyroid Function and Kidney Function in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in International journal of endocrinology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo determine if the TSH is related to estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in T2D patients without overt thyroid dysfunction.
methodsA cohort study of 5936 T2D patients was assessed for thyroid and kidney functions, in whom 248 with subclinical hyperthyroidism and 362 with subclinical hypothyroidism. Serum creatinine and 24-hour urine albumin excretion (UAE) were collected. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined as eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m
resultsCompared with euthyroid subjects, the patients with subclinical hypothyroidism had lower eGFR (82.7 ± 22.4 vs. 90.5 ± 22.4 ml/min/1.73 m
conclusionHigh TSH was independently associated with decreased eGFR in type 2 diabetes patients without overt thyroid dysfunction. Our findings indicate that doctors who treat T2D patients should routinely measure the thyroid function.
