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

A 20-year-old woman with a 10-month history of treatment for Graves' disease (GD), developed hypothyroidism with a high level of thyrotropin (TSH) receptor-blocking antibodies (TBAbs). She conceived at 28 years old and was clinically euthyroid in the first and second trimester, while taking L-thyroxine. However, at 28 weeks she became hyperthyroid with an unexpected rise in TSH receptor-stimulating antibody (TSAb) levels. She was diagnosed with GD, and methimazole was initiated. Her thyroid function normalized, but the neonate became hyperthyroid. We herein report the first case of a shift in dominance from TBAbs to TSAbs in late pregnancy.
