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

Herein we respond to the controversial United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommendation to perform thyroid function testing in children up to 3 years of age within 3 weeks of exposure to iodinated contrast media (ICM). Considering the many effects of thyroid hormone on the cardiovascular system, the increased risk of thyroid disease in patients with congenital heart disease, the hemodynamic consequences of the Fontan circulation on the thyroid gland, and the potential clinical significance of subclinical hypothyroidism, we share our perspective that the cardiovascular effects of thyroid hormone may carry more influence for patients with single ventricle heart disease. In our opinion, the FDA statement prompts us to consider routine thyroid hormone surveillance testing in the long-term management of patients with single ventricle heart disease.
