Associations Between Overt and Subclinical Hypothyroidism in Pregnancy and Adverse Maternal and Neonatal Outcomes:
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 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
Objectives: This study aimed to determine associations between hypothyroidism during pregnancy and selected maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods: A retrospective, cohort study was conducted between January 2018 and December 2020 at the two main tertiary hospitals in Muscat, Oman. The study included 408 Omani pregnant women aged 18-45 years. Participants were divided into two groups: those diagnosed with overt or subclinical hypothyroidism (n = 201; exposed group) and those with normal thyroid function (n = 207; unexposed group), matched for relevant variables. Data were collected from electronic medical records to assess maternal and neonatal outcomes. Results: Most exposed women (94.5%) had overt hypothyroidism. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in gestational diabetes mellitus, gestational hypertension, or pre-eclampsia ( Conclusion: Hypothyroidism during pregnancy was not associated with an increased risk of most adverse maternal or neonatal outcomes in this cohort. This may be attributed to the effective management of hypothyroidism, as the majority of affected women were on thyroxine therapy, maintaining a clinically and biochemically euthyroid state throughout pregnancy.
