Progressive Thymic Hyperplasia With Graves' Disease: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We treated a 36-year-old man with thymic hyperplasia complicated with Graves' disease. Thymic hyperplasia was observed on thoracic computed tomography (CT) three months after the onset of thyrotoxicosis symptoms. One month after thiamazole initiation, he displayed drug-induced liver injury and underwent a total thyroidectomy. Seven months after surgery, we observed a dramatic reduction of thymic size associated with normalizing the soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) levels. The rapid development of hyperplasia after the onset of thyrotoxicosis and the restoration in thymus volume after total thyroidectomy associated with suppression of sIL-2R, in this case, suggests the complexity of the pathogenesis of thymic hyperplasia in the thyrotoxicosis.
