Co-Morbid Hypothyroidism and Liver Dysfunction: A Review.
Review in Clinical medicine insights. Endocrinology and diabetes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The liver and thyroid hormones interact at multiple levels to maintain homoeostasis. The liver requires large adequate amounts of thyroid hormones to execute its metabolic functions optimally, and deficiency of thyroid hormones may lead to liver dysfunction. Hypothyroidism has been associated with abnormal lipid metabolism, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), hypothyroidism-induced myopathy, hypothyroidism-associated gallstones and occasionally, interferon-induced thyroid dysfunction. NAFLD remain an important association with hypothyroidism and further studies are needed that specifically compare the natural course of NAFLD secondary to hypothyroidism and primary NAFLD. Hepatic dysfunction associated with hypothyroidism is usually reverted by normalizing thyroid status. Large scale studies geared towards finding new and effective therapies, especially for NAFLD are needed. The clinician must be aware that there exists overlapping symptomatology between liver dysfunction and severe hypothyroidism which may make delay the diagnosis and treatment of hypothyroidism; this requires a high index of suspicion.
