Prevalence of Transient Hypothyroidism in Children Diagnosed with Congenital Hypothyroidism between 2000 and 2016.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Newborn screening (NBS) for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) was introduced in Switzerland in 1977, which allowed for the preclinical, biochemical diagnosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of transient CH (tCH) in the canton of Zurich. In this analytical cohort study, all newborns born in the canton of Zurich, between the 1st of January 2000 and the 30st of June 2016, with a TSH value above 15 mU/L (whole blood) were included. There were 115 cases out of 247,918 babies born during the study period. However, 23 cases had to be excluded due to missing data. The definite diagnosis was made after a thyroxine withdrawal at 2 years of age. The total prevalence of confirmed CH and the female to male ratio (f/m) were 1:2695 and 2.17:1; for permanent CH (pCH), 1:3443 and 2.8:1; and for tCH, 1:12,396 and 1:1, respectively. The TSH value was significantly higher in pCH compared to tCH, at 130.3 (62.9-171.9) and 36.4 (26.5-53.3) (median and interquartile range), respectively (
