Pediatric Graves' Disease: Challenges Associated With Thyroidectomy and Perioperative Management in a Three-Year-Old Child.
Article in Cureus, 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
Graves' disease is a rare cause of hyperthyroidism in children, and it poses specific problems in diagnosis and surgery. We report a three-year-old female child who had Graves' disease with exophthalmos, for which she underwent a total thyroidectomy. On the preoperative assessment, the patient had tachycardia, hypertension, and severe bilateral proptosis. Managing the airway was challenging due to a shift in the trachea and possible tracheomalacia. Endocrine stabilization, protection for the eyes during surgery, and close observation for thyroid storms and neck hematoma were some strategies employed during the perioperative period. This case highlights the importance of tailored, multidisciplinary approaches to optimize outcomes in pediatric thyroidectomy.
