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

Background/purpose: Some studies have previously demonstrated possible association between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and oral lichen planus (OLP), however, data of immunity and inflammation in these patients were not well investigated. This study aimed to propose some novel findings based on a case-control study of 185 OLP patients and 185 age- and gender-matched non-OLP volunteers in northwest China. Materials and methods: This study was designed and implemented in a tertiary teaching hospital between January 2021 and December 2024. Comprehensive evaluation was performed including thyroid function tests and seroimmunological parameters. Results: The incidence of HT among OLP patients reached 31.9 %, demonstrating a statistically significant elevation compared to the control group's prevalence of 9.7 % ( Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate a strong correlation between OLP, especially its erosive form, and thyroid autoimmunity, with female sex representing an independent and clinically relevant predisposing factor.
