A systematic review of the clinical characteristics and course of atrioventricular blocks in hyperthyroidism.
Synthesis in Annals of medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAtrioventricular block (AVB) is rare in hyperthyroidism (HTH). Little is known about the true prevalence, clinical course, optimal management, and outcomes of different types of AVBs in patients with HTH. To address these uncertainties, we aimed to conduct a systematic review by combining the available literature to provide more meaningful data regarding AVBs in HTH.
methodsWe systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar for articles reporting patients who developed AVB in the context of HTH. Data were analysed in STATA 16. The main outcomes included types of AVB, frequency of pacemaker insertion, and resolution of AVB. The systematic review is registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) with the identification number CRD42022335598.
resultsA total of 56 studies (39 case reports, 12 case series, 3 conference abstracts, 1 retrospective study, and 1 prospective observational study) with 87 patients were included in the analysis, with a mean age of 39.1 ± 17.6 years. Females constituted 65.7% (
conclusionCurrent data suggest that CHB is the most common type of AVB in patients with HTH. Most patients can be managed with anti-thyroid management alone. Additionally, whether pacemaker insertion alters the clinical outcomes needs further exploration.
