1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Depression has been associated with subclinical hypothyroidism and altered hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis functioning. Adequate iodine nutrition is essential for healthy thyroid functioning. We therefore determined associations of iodine and thyroid status with paediatric major depressive disorder (pMDD) among Swiss adolescents and explored whether associations are sex-specific and mediated by stress. We conducted a matched case-control study in 95 adolescents with diagnosed pMDD and 95 healthy controls. We assessed depression severity using the Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised and stress using the perceived stress scale (PSS) and measuring hair cortisol levels. We determined iodine status by measuring urinary iodine concentrations (UIC) and thyroid status by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) in serum. Median (IQR) UIC did not differ between cases (121 (87, 174) µg/l) and controls (114 (66, 183) μg/l,
