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

Thyroid hormone (T3) is critical not only for organ function and metabolism in the adult but also for animal development. This is particularly true during the neonatal period when T3 levels are high in mammals. Many processes during this postembryonic developmental period resemble those during amphibian metamorphosis. Anuran metamorphosis is perhaps the most dramatic developmental process controlled by T3 and affects essentially all organs/tissues, often in an organ autonomous manner. This offers a unique opportunity to study how T3 regulates vertebrate development. Earlier transgenic studies in the pseudo-tetraploid anuran Xenopus laevis revealed that T3 receptors (TRs) are necessary and sufficient for mediating the effects of T3 during metamorphosis. Recent gene knockout studies with gene-editing technologies in the highly related diploid anuran Xenopus tropicalis showed, surprisingly, that TRs are not required for most metamorphic transformations, although tadpoles lacking TRs are stalled at the climax of metamorphosis and eventually die. Analyses of the changes in different organs suggest that removal of TRs enables premature development of many adult tissues, likely due to de-repression of T3-inducible genes, while preventing the degeneration of tadpole-specific tissues, which is possibly responsible for the eventual lethality. Comparison with findings in TR knockout mice suggests both conservation and divergence in TR functions, with the latter likely due to the greatly reduced need, if any, to remove embryo/prenatal-specific tissues during mammalian postembryonic development.
