Changes in Secretion of the Thyroid and Pituitary Glands with a Gradual Decrease in Deuterium Body Content.
Article in Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2023. 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
We studied changes in the secretion of thyroid hormones and pituitary thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in young mature male Wistar rats during gradual decrease in deuterium body content. The rats received deuterium-depleted water ([D]=10 ppm) instead of tap water for 21 days. As soon as after 1 day, an increase in the secretion of thyroid hormones was recorded. On day 14, secondary hypothyroidism due to a sharp decrease in TSH secretion by the pituitary gland was found. By day 21, secretion of the thyroid hormones increased, and the reciprocal dependence between the concentrations of thyroid hormones and TSH was restored. Thus, the thyroid gland showed a higher sensitivity to a decrease in the deuterium content in the body than the hypothalamic-pituitary complex. The second difference was in type of response: activation of the secretory processes in the thyroid gland and a transient decrease in the secretory activity of pituitary gland thyrotropes to a decrease in deuterium content.
