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

Background/Objective: Graves' disease is an autoimmune disease associated with high levels of circulating thyroid hormones (THs). Resistance to thyroid hormone beta (RTHβ) caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta ( Case Report: The woman was 27 years of age, with free thyroxine (T4) (FT4) >7.7 ng/dL (0.8-1.8), triiodothyronine of 1350 ng/dL (90-180), and undetectable thyrotropin (TSH), but no symptoms of thyrotoxicosis. She also had thyroglobulin antibodies of 65 (2-38). She was treated with methimazole and atenolol. The newborn neonatal screen showed a TSH of 43 mU/L [upper limit of normal 20 mU/L] and total T4 of 21.8 μg/dL (upper limit of normal 15). At 6 days of age, the newborn had a FT4 of 12.3 ng/dL (0.9-2.3), and unsuppressed TSH. The infant, at 3.5 months of age, was identified to harbor a Discussion: The perinatal high FT4 and tachycardia could have been influenced by the elevated TH levels of the mother and the fetal RTHβ. Conclusion: It is difficult to evaluate the etiology of neonatal hyperthyroidism when fetal RTHβ and maternal Graves' disease are not diagnosed early at birth.
