Hysterosalpingography with Oil-Soluble Contrast Medium Does Not Increase Newborn Hypothyroidism.
Article in International journal of endocrinology, 2022. 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
objectiveHysterosalpingography (HSG) with oil-soluble contrast medium (OSCM) improves pregnancy rates in women with idiopathic infertility. However, OSCM has high iodine content and slow clearance resulting in potential iodine excess. If pregnancy occurs, this could impact fetal thyroid gland development and function. We aim to determine the effect of a preconceptional OSCM HSG on the thyroid function of the neonate.
resultsOf 146 babies included, all had normal TSH levels with values ranging from 1 to 7 mIU/L on the whole blood analysis of a capillary heel sample using the Perkin-Elmer AutoDelfia assay. Conception during the first 3 cycles following an OSCM HSG was 76%; however, TSH levels in this group were not higher than those conceived in later cycles.
conclusionPreconceptional OSCM HSG did not increase the risk of congenital hypothyroidism in the New Zealand scenario.
