1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: Dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON) is a severe complication of thyroid eye disease (TED) with limited early detection methods. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with TED who developed DON and to establish a predictive model for early identification of high-risk cases. Methods: Herein, 257 TED patients were prospectively included, of whom 68 (26.5%) developed DON. All patients were divided into derivation and validation cohorts, and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression and logistic regression analyses were applied to identify clinical factors and construct a prediction model. Results: In the derivation cohort (185 TED patients), 49 (26.5%) developed DON. DON patients showed significantly higher prevalence of pretibial myxedema (PTM) (22.4 vs 5.9%, P = 0.001), diabetes mellitus (18.4 vs 7.4%, P = 0.029), older age (58.04 ± 11.30 years vs 47.99 ± 10.65 years, P < 0.001), higher CAS (5 vs 4, P < 0.001), elevated triglyceride (TG) levels (1.44 mmol/L vs 1.15 mmol/L, P = 0.042), and lower visual functioning (VF) (43.75 vs 62.50, P < 0.001). LASSO regression analysis identified age, PTM, TG, VF, and CAS as independent predictors of DON. The developed nomogram presented AUCs of 0.853 (95% CI: 0.792-0.914) and 0.856 (95% CI: 0.762-0.950) in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. Conclusions: Altogether, the findings of this study identify advanced age, elevated CAS, increased TG, lower VF, and PTM as significant predictors of DON in patients with TED. The proposed nomogram offers a practical clinical tool for risk stratification, providing clinicians with an approach for individualized risk assessment and timely therapeutic intervention.
