Two-Dose Crossover Iodine Balance Study: Iodine Requirements for Toddlers in China.
Article in Biological trace element research, 2025. 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
There is a possibility that the iodine requirement for toddlers currently used in China is underestimated. This study aimed to conduct an iodine balance study in Chinese toddlers. We used a two-dose crossover experimental design, relying on the local iodine concentration in drinking water, and adjusting the iodine intake level by adjusting the toddlers' daily consumption of local drinking water. We measured daily iodine intake, excretion, and retention in toddlers and used linear mixed-effects models were used to fit the relationship between total iodine intake and iodine retention. This study involved 26 toddlers aged 2-3 years. Based on the daily total iodine intake and iodine balance values of the toddlers, a mixed effects model was applied to fit the regression curve, and the regression equation was obtained: y = 0.214x - 16.68, from which the EAR and RNI levels of the toddlers were calculated to be approximately 80 µg/day, and 110 µg/day, respectively. In our study, we expected the reference values for daily iodine EAR and RNI levels in toddlers with their current iodine nutrition status to be about 80 µg/day and 110 µg/day, respectively.
