Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Subclinical Hypothyroidism, the Cut-Off Value of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone; Is There a Link? Findings of a Population-Based Study.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Despite solid evidence regarding the association of over-hypothyroidism with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the relationship between PCOS and subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is still a topic of debate. In the present population-based study, we aimed to assess if there is a difference between PCOS and the control group regarding the upper reference limit of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). We also aimed to identify the prevalence of SCH in women with PCOS compared to controls. This study was conducted on data collected in the Iranian PCOS prevalence study and the Khuzestan PCOS prevalence study. Participants that met our eligibility criteria were categorized into two groups: PCOS (
