1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 disease is common in older adults. Increasing numbers of older persons will present to physicians for care in the United States as the U.S. and world populations age. It is expected that by the year 2030 that 19-20% of the U.S. population will be over 65-years old and by 2040 that 25% of the U.S. population will be over 65-years old. It is important for clinicians to be familiar with thyroid disease in this population because of its impact on the patient's functional and cognitive state. Thyroid disease often presents in older adults with nonspecific presentations such as falls, weakness, or cognitive impairment. Thyroid abnormalities may also be detected with routine testing.
