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

Syndrome of thyroid hormone resistance (THR) is a rare inherited condition characterized by a reduced responsiveness of the tissues to the thyroid hormone. The syndrome is caused primarily by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta (THRB) gene, leading to impaired hormone receptor function. It is a diagnosis of exclusion and often leads to delays in establishing the diagnosis. Management is usually conservative, as over-treating can be unnecessary and potentially detrimental. Our case report aims to highlight the changes in thyroid function tests and the subtle presenting symptoms of this disease so that clinicians are more mindful of this rare condition. It brings to attention the importance of follow-up to monitor the lab values and reach an accurate diagnosis. We also report a novel mutation identified in the THRB gene.
