Cardiometabolic-related dietary patterns and thyroid function: a population-based cross-sectional study.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundLittle is known about the association of dietary patterns with thyroid function. Since thyroid function and cardiometabolic variables are inter-related, we investigated whether cardiometabolic-related dietary patterns are associated with thyroid function.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 3520 Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study participants. Reduced rank regression was used to find dietary patterns with body mass index, serum fasting glucose, triglycerides, HDL-C, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures as response variables. Two patterns were retained, one based on 35 food groups (native-based pattern) and the other based on the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition Germany (EPIC) food grouping (n = 33). A confirmatory cardio-metabolic dietary pattern was also created according to the weight of food groups proposed by the Framingham Offspring Study (FOS). The association of each pattern with thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine, and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and the odds of thyroid dysfunction was examined by linear and logistic regression, respectively.
resultsThe two exploratory dietary patterns were highly correlated and associated with greater TSH levels in euthyroid participants. The adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) of subclinical hypothyroidism per one standard deviation was 1.14 (1.01, 1.28) for the native-based pattern and 1.16 (1.03, 1.31) for the EPIC-based pattern. The odds of subclinical hypothyroidism was significantly greater in the second and third tertiles of the native-based pattern compared to the first tertile in the adjusted model (p-trend = 0.005). The odds of subclinical hypothyroidism increased across the tertiles of the EPIC-based pattern, but the odds was significantly higher only in tertile 3 compared to tertile 1, with an OR (95% CI) of 1.44 (1.07, 1.94) in the adjusted model. The adjusted odds of clinical hypothyroidism were greater in tertile 3 of the native-based pattern compared with tertile 1 (OR = 1.65, 95% CI 1.04, 2.62). The patterns were unrelated to hyperthyroidism or TPOAb positivity. The FOS-based confirmatory score was unrelated to thyroid function.
conclusionsA diet high in fast foods, soft drinks, and legumes and low in confectionery, potatoes, butter, and jam and honey was associated with higher TSH levels in euthyroidism and higher odds of subclinical hypothyroidism.
