Vitamin D deficiency in thyroid autoimmune diseases.
Article in Archive of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The role of vitamin D in the human body is a complex one, proven by the many studies performed related to this aspect. Data from the literature on the correlation between vitamin D deficiency and thyroid autoimmune pathology, although present and increasing in the last 10 years, have failed to establish exactly whether or not there is a link between them. The aim of the study was to assess the status of vitamin D in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease; and to determine if there is a correlation between parameters such as: thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4), ATPO; and vitamin D levels. Therefore, we performed a retrospective study in which we included 60 patients, 32 with autoimmune thyroid pathology and 28 patients with negative antithyroid antibodies. The average age of those in the case group was 58 years old and 52 years old for the control group. Female sex was predominant in both groups of patients, 97% in the study group and 71% in the control group. Vitamin D values in patients with thyroid autoimmune pathology in our study were on average higher than those obtained in the control group (patients with negative thyroid antibodies), without finding a statistically significant difference between the values of the two groups of patients (p = 0.197). The study shows a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in both groups of patients (with or without autoimmune thyroid disease), the highest rate being observed among patients without autoimmune pathology, but without a statistically significant difference between values.
