Clinical Efficacy of Levothyroxine Sodium plus I 131 in the Treatment of Patients with Thyroidectomy and Its Effect on the Levels of Thyroglobulin and Thyrotropin.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. 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
Objective: This study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of levothyroxine sodium tablets combined with I 131 in the treatment of patients after thyroidectomy and the effect on thyroglobulin (Tg) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. Methods: 80 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer who required thyroidectomy after surgery between July 2019 and January 2021 were recruited for prospective study, 40 patients in the control group received levothyroxine sodium tablets, and 40 patients in the experimental group received levothyroxine sodium treatment plus I 131 treatment. Treatment effect, serum Tg and TSH levels, and relapse were measured. Results: The removal rate of residual thyroid tissue in the experimental group (87.50%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (57.50%) ( Conclusion: Levothyroxine sodium tablets plus I 131 for post-operative patients with differentiated thyroid cancer enhance the removal rate of residual thyroid tissue, effectively reduce serum Tg level, and increase TSH level, with significant therapeutic effects, low recurrence rates, and a high safety profile.
