Clinical Profile of Non-thyroidal Cancer Patients with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor-induced Thyroid Dysfunction in the University of Santo Tomas Hospital, Philippines: A 5-Year Single-center Retrospective Study.

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
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the clinical profile of non-thyroidal cancer patients with thyroid dysfunction associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy at the University of Santo Tomas Hospital (USTH), Philippines. Methodology: This is a retrospective observational study of TKI-initiated adult non-thyroidal cancer patients with thyroid function testing from 2013 to 2018. Results: Forty percent (95% CI: 26.2% - 58.61%) of the sixty individuals who had thyroid function tests (TFT) had incident thyroid dysfunction. Thirty percent had hypothyroidism (i.e., 25% overt [mean TSH 16.64 uIU/mL]; 5% subclinical [mean TSH 6.62 uIU/mL]). The median time at risk was 8 and 16 months for overt and subclinical hypothyroidism, respectively. Fifty-six percent had persistent hypothyroidism (median TSH 16.75, Conclusion: TKI-induced thyroid dysfunctions are common. Screening and monitoring for thyroid abnormalities during TKI therapy is important.
