Change in insulin-like growth factor type 1 concentration after radioactive iodine treatment in cats with hyperthyroidism.

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
ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate changes in serum insulin-like growth factor type 1 (IGF-1) concentrations in cats with hyperthyroidism before and after radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment, as well as investigate the correlation between thyroid volume and serum IGF-1 concentrations.MethodsA total of 13 cats with hyperthyroidism and 14 healthy controls were included. Serum total thyroxine (TT4)/thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and IGF-1/insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) concentrations were measured using chemiluminescence immunoassay and ELISA, respectively, at presentation and 6 months after RAI treatment. The results were compared with thyroid volume measured using scintigraphy. Data are presented as median (interquartile range [IQR]) and analysed using non-parametric tests.ResultsSerum TT4 concentrations significantly decreased from 9.30 µg/dl (IQR 6.49-12.7) to 2.23 µg/dl (IQR 1.34-2.94) after RAI treatment (
