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

The causes for mental retardation due to perinatal hypothyroidism are not fully understood. Here we show that the most potent component of thyroid hormone, 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3), selectively increases the density of voltage-activated Na+ currents in hippocampal neurons from newborn rats. Thus, the well known effects of thyroid hormone on energy expenditure and Na+/K+ ATPase activity could to some extent result from the enhanced Na+ influx through voltage-activated Na+ channels. In addition, a down-regulation of the Na+ current density in neurons could contribute to some of the neurological symptoms accompanying hypothyroidism, including slowing of mentation, of neuronal conduction velocities, the alpha rhythm of the electroencephalogram, and increased latencies of evoked potentials and reflexes.
