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
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) type 3B is characterized by presence of autoimmune thyroid disease, chronic atrophic gastritis and pernicious anemia. In this report, we present a rare case of APS type 3B with neuropathy by thiamine deficiency. A 65-year-old man had a history with hypothyroidism, gastritis, gastrectomy for gastric cancer and subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord. Patient developed polyneuropathy with not mecobalamin but thiamine deficiency. Serum anti-thyroglobin (TG), anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO), and anti-gastric parietal cell antibodies were positive. He was treated with thiamine supplementation and improved muscle weakness, sensory impairment and gait disturbance. Classically, it is reported gastric cancer related to hypothyroidism. Additionally, thiamine deficiency can be caused by gastrectomy. Here, his thiamine deficiency was related to APS type 3B, leading to polyneuropathy.
