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

objectiveFetal hyperthyroidism is a rare yet potentially fatal complication of past or present maternal Graves disease (GD). Our objective was to present a unique case of fetal hyperthyroidism in a mother with a prior history of GD and a cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) polymorphism.

methodsThe clinical course in addition to serial laboratory and imaging results are presented. These include thyroid-stimulating hormone, free thyroxine, and thyrotropin receptor antibody levels, as well as fetal ultrasound, doppler fetal heart rate, and cordocentesis testing.

resultsA 27-year-old with a history of GD previously treated with radioiodine and a known cytochrome P450 polymorphism was referred to an endocrinology clinic at 17 weeks gestation for evaluation and management of fetal thyrotoxicosis. Despite close follow-up with a multidisciplinary care team and an aggressive "block and replace" treatment approach, progressive disease resulted in intrauterine fetal demise at 28 weeks gestation.

conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first published case report of fetal hyperthyroidism accompanied by a maternal CYP2D6 polymorphism. We hypothesize that the maternal CYP2D6 poor metabolizer phenotype prevents formation of antithyroid drug (ATD) metabolites and thus decreases the efficacy of ATD treatment. We suggest this as an area of future research.
