Clinical associations with thyroid disease in ANCA-associated vasculitis.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 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
objectiveTo evaluate the frequency and the clinical relevance of thyroid disease in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) patients.
methodsA total of 305 AAV patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between October 2010 and December 2023 were analyzed. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were compared between AAV patients with and without thyroid disease. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with thyroid disease in AAV patients.
resultsAmong the 305 AAV patients, 52 (17.0%) had concurrent thyroid disease. In univariate analysis, gender, coronary artery disease, renal involvement, anti-Ro/SSA antibodies, anti-Ro52 antibodies, anti-thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb), and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb) exhibited significant differences between AAV patients with and without thyroid disease (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that female gender (odds ratio (OR) = 2.423, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.241, 4.729; P = 0.009), concurrent coronary artery disease (OR = 2.998, 95% CI 1.280, 7.019; P = 0.011), and positive anti-Ro/SSA antibodies (OR = 4.697, 95% CI 1.960, 11.257; P = 0.001) were associated with thyroid disease in AAV patients.
conclusionAAV patients have a higher incidence of thyroid disease. Regular monitoring of thyroid function is advised for AAV patients, particularly for women, those with coronary artery disease, and those who are positive for anti-Ro/SSA antibodies. Key Points • AAV patients have a higher incidence of thyroid disease. • The potential clinical relevance of AAV patients with thyroid disease was explored. • Regular monitoring of thyroid function is advised for AAV patients.
