Thyroid Dysfunction at Different Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study at a Rural Teaching College in Central India.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 The high prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) indicates a major correlation between the progression of CKD and thyroid dysfunction. In this study, we highlighted thyroid dysfunction and its relation to the severity and different stages of CKDs. Materials and methods From October 2018 to September 2020, 200 cases with CKD, admitted under the Department of Medicine at a rural teaching hospital in central India, were selected for the study. The collected data was analyzed and correlated using the Chi-square test, and the parameters suggested the presence or absence of low T3 syndrome, low T4 syndrome, and primary hypothyroidism. Results Out of 200 patients enrolled, 181 (91.5%) had thyroid abnormalities. Among these patients, the presence of low T3 syndrome was 57%, low T4 syndrome was 23%, and primary hypothyroidism was 10.5%. It was reported that as the CKD stages advanced, TSH levels increased with a statistically significant difference (p=0.04). Conclusions As kidney function progressively deteriorated, specifically in stage five, the chances of occurrence of hypothyroidism increased.
