Exploring the Impacts of Fluoride-Induced Thyroid Toxicity: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Biological trace element research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Fluoride exposure via contaminated drinking water is a significant global public health concern. Fluoride being beneficial at minimal concentrations was used for dental caries prevention, but excessive exposure of fluoride has been associated with numerous health disorders including skeletal and dental fluorosis, weakening of bones making them more prone to fractures, impaired intelligence, stunted growth, reduced birth and fertility rates, and disruption of thyroid function. This review provides a concise overview of all the existing literature on the effects of fluoride on the thyroid gland till date. Various data collection methods including PubMed, Scopus, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar were used to collect relevant research papers using keywords "changes caused by fluoride in thyroid" or "fluoride induced toxicity on the thyroid gland" ranging from 1976 till date. Fluoride adversely affects thyroid function via interfering with iodine metabolism (replacing iodine in the gland and also inhibiting its uptake). It also disrupts T
