Treating Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy in Pediatric Patients.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 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
Thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is a common extra-thyroid clinical manifestation of Graves' disease. It is an inflammatory disease of the eye and orbital tissues. Up to one-third of pediatric Graves' disease patients could be diagnosed with TAO. The symptoms can be variable with remissions and exacerbations of pediatric Graves' disease, which has negative effects on the quality of life in children. Teprotumumab is a fully human IgG1κ type monoclonal antibody targeting insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), and was approved for the treatment of TAO as a "breakthrough therapy" by the FDA in 2020. Nevertheless, the safety and effectiveness have not been established in pediatric patients. IGF-1R plays an important role in human development, which raises concerns of developmental toxicity. As presented in the pharmacology review report, juvenile monkeys were tested in two separate repeated-dose toxicity studies and no NOAEL was identified. Teprotumumab affected the growth, thymus, spleen and decreased the bone growth. Younger animals seemed to be more sensitive to the effects on normal growth and normal thymus. Hearing impairment posed additional risk to the potential pediatric use, especially for school-age children. Considering the nature of the target, Teprotumumab should not be used empirically in children. More efforts would be made for the further development of teprotumumab for pediatric use.
