Positive Relationships between Intraocular Pressure and Thyroid Function in Graves' Ophthalmopathy: A Three-Aspect Evidence Analysis.

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
purposeHigh intraocular pressure (IOP) is a frequent clinical manifestation of Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO), but little is known about the mechanism by which thyroid function alters IOP in GO. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe relationships between IOP and clinical manifestations of GO were determined by simple linear correlation analysis and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Factors significantly associated with changes in IOP were evaluated by multiple linear regression analysis. The relationships between IOP and thyroid function were verified using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, and causative relationships between thyroid function and IOP were assessed using summary-data-based Mendelian randomization analysis. Gene expression was compared in patients with and without GO using analysis of a Gene Expression Omnibus dataset, and associated GO pathways were identified.
resultsClinical data were obtained from 392 hospitalizations of 270 patients, including 142 hospitalizations with increased IOP and 250 with normal IOP. IOP was linearly associated with GO duration, clinical activity score (CAS), and concentrations of free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), and thyrotropin receptor antibodies. Multiple linear regression analysis yielded a model including CAS, FT3 concentration, and sex (r=0.46). Analysis of 3848 samples from the dataset showed that FT3 and FT4 levels differed between the increased and normal IOP groups. Increased expression of the
conclusionIncreased thyroid function is a risk factor for elevated IOP in patients with GO, with higher expression of
