Graves' disease associated with cholestatic jaundice and persistent diarrhoea.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Liver involvement in Graves' disease can be seen as a part of autoimmune process or rarely, due to the direct effects of thyrotoxicosis on liver. Hyperthyroidism can also have gastrointestinal manifestations like frequent bowel movements, diarrhoea, even malabsorption with steatorrhoea. We report a 36-year-old man with hyperthyroidism, presenting with cholestatic jaundice and persistent small bowel diarrhoea. He was diagnosed to have Graves' disease and after ruling out more common causes, the cause of cholestatic jaundice was supposed to be Graves' disease. Considering this possibility, the patient was started on treatment with carbimazole. As patient's thyroid function tests started improving, he showed significant clinical and biochemical improvement from liver point of view as well.
