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

backgroundThere is only a limited number of studies that show alterations in erythrocytes in feline hyperthyroidism. Discrepancies between the findings of these studies may be caused by the presence of concurrent diseases and the use of various haematological analysers.

methodsThis study analysed changes in red blood cells (RBCs) in 88 hyperthyroid cats without concurrent diseases, to identify associations between observed changes and to assess the influence of serum thyroxine (T4) concentration, cat age, and sex, on RBC changes.

resultsAmong the eighty-eight hyperthyroid cats, erythrocytosis was observed in twelve, anaemia in four, macrocytosis in two, and microcytosis in three. Three of the four cases of anaemia probably resulted from concurrent unrecognised disease. Interestingly, all cases of microcytosis were recognized in cats that had erythrocytosis. This study identified a moderate negative correlation between RBC count and mean corpuscular volume (MCV; r = -0.57,
