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

objectiveThis study aims to explore the correlation between central and peripheral thyroid resistance indices and diabetic retinopathy(DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide a clinical basis for the prevention and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.

methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 1249 euthyroid patients with T2DM hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology, Peking University International Hospital from January 2017 to June 2022, including 852 males and 397 females, with an average age of 54.73 ± 13.40 years. According to the degree of DR, the patients were divided into three groups including the no diabetic retinopathy (NDR) group, non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) group and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) group.

resultsFree thymidine (FT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroid feedback quantile index (TFQI), thyrotropin-T4 resistance index (TT4RI), thyroid stimulating hormone index (TSHI) and free triiodothyronine/free thyroxine (FT3/FT4) levels among the three groups were significantly different, with the NDR group having lowest TSH, TFQI, TT4QI, TSHI and the highest in the PDR group (all

conclusionThe reduction of central and peripheral thyroid hormone sensitivity is an independent risk factor for DR. These results can help predict the risk of the occurrence and development of DR, which may provide a clinical basis for the prevention and treatment of DR in T2DM patients.
