Untreated Graves' Disease Complicated by Thyroid Storm and High-Output Cardiac Failure: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Thyroid storm is a rare yet critical complication of uncontrolled thyrotoxicosis, posing significant challenges in clinical management. We present the case of a 65-year-old African-American female with a medical history significant for untreated Graves' disease, hypertension, and diverticulosis, who presented with escalating abdominal pain, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and chest discomfort. Upon admission, she exhibited atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (RVR) and newly diagnosed high-output cardiac failure. Diagnosis of thyroid storm was confirmed through comprehensive laboratory assessments and clinical evaluation. Treatment with beta-blockers, anti-thyroid medications, and corticosteroids facilitated stabilization of her condition. This case report highlights the importance of early identification and intervention in thyroid storm to avert potential morbidity and mortality.
