Hypothyroid Myopathy-A Rare Case from Paediatric Practice.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hypothyroid myopathy is uncommon in childhood. Severe hypothyroid myopathy observed in paediatric practice is a part of Kocher-Debré-Semelaigne syndrome (KDSS, OR-PHA:2349), a rare disorder characterised by muscular pseudohypertrophy and long-standing moderate-to-severe hypothyroidism. We present a pubertal girl with KDSS diagnosed with severe myopathy and significantly limited mobility and progressively increasing pains in the lumbar area, hip joints, and the lower limbs. Additionally, the patient presented metabolic syndrome with severe obesity, growth retardation, and educational difficulties. In this case, adequate hormone replacement therapy with Levothyroxine evoked full recovery of the myopathy and a significant reversal in the patient's general condition. In conclusion, emphasizing the knowledge related to KDSS can improve the diagnosis and prognosis of the condition.
