Untreated Primary Hypothyroidism Manifesting as Cardiac Tamponade.
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
Hypothyroidism is a condition characterized by low thyroid hormone levels that can affect multiple organ systems with varying symptomatology. Common cardiac manifestations of hypothyroidism include bradycardia and decreased cardiac output. Pericardial effusion can also occur as a result of the condition and rarely can progress to cardiac tamponade. Patients with cardiac tamponade occurring as a result of underlying hypothyroidism can present atypically compared to those experiencing cardiac tamponade due to other causes. Patients with cardiac tamponade as a result of underlying hypothyroidism may present as minimally symptomatic with stable vital signs. Close monitoring of patients with pericardial effusions with underlying hypothyroidism is essential to permit early diagnosis and treatment of the condition. We outline the case of a 73-year-old male presenting with cardiac tamponade due to underlying hypothyroidism necessitating an urgent pericardial window.
