Gestational trophoblastic disease-induced thyroid storm: A case report.
Article in Case reports in women's health, 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
Gestational trophoblastic disease describes tumors caused by abnormal proliferation of trophoblastic tissue. A rare but potentially fatal complication is thyroid storm, which results from excessive thyroid hormone secretion stimulated by high levels of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin. A 28-year-old woman (gravida 4, para 1, with two prior miscarriages) presented with vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, vomiting, palpitations, dyspnea, and an enlarging neck swelling. Examination revealed hypertension, tachycardia, hypoxia, an enlarged thyroid gland, pulmonary crackles, elevated jugular venous pressure, and a holosystolic murmur. The uterus was consistent with a 20-week gestation and was actively bleeding. The patient was confused and agitated without focal neurological deficits. Laboratory evaluation showed anemia, abnormal liver function, suppressed thyroid-stimulating hormone, and markedly elevated beta-human chorionic gonadotropin. Imaging demonstrated the classic "snowstorm" appearance of a molar pregnancy, which was confirmed by histopathology. The Burch-Wartofsky score supported the diagnosis of thyroid storm. She received anti-thyroid treatment and underwent uterine evacuation. Nine weeks after discharge, her hormone levels had normalized and serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin was undetectable.
