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

Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is a thyroid hormone deficiency syndrome in newborns resulting from incomplete thyroid development and decreased thyroid hormone biosynthesis or thyroid-stimulating hormone secretion. Without early treatment, newborns with CH have irreversible neurological deficits and long-term metabolic complications. Therefore, several countries have implemented widespread newborn screening to identify and treat CH in newborns. Although newborn screening has improved diagnosis and treatment outcomes for CH, several questions remain concerning the etiology and increased incidence of CH in different populations. Moreover, the increase in the number of preterm, low-birth-weight newborns and of newborns admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit presenting with CH requires additional research to detect and treat all forms of CH.
