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
backgroundHodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is one of the most common malignant lymphoproliferative diseases. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy used in the treatment of LH induce a number of toxic effects leading to dysfunction of endocrine system. Hormonal disorders in HL and their relationships with the therapy used remain to be clarified.
aimTo assess disorders of the endocrine function of thyroid, parathyroid glands and gonads in HL survivors. MATERIALS AND
methodsScreening of endocrine dysfunction of the thyroid, parathyroid glands and gonads was performed in 160 adult patients with HL, 55 men and 105 women, at remission stage induced by chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. Forty healthy subjects, matched by age, were acted as control. The levels of TSH, T3, free T4, PTH, FSH, LH, free testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), and sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured in blood serum by ELISA. Bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed by DEXA.
resultsHypothyroidism (25%), hyperparathyroidism (15.6%) and hypogonadism (29% of men and 25.3% of women) were the most prevalent endocrine disorders in LH survivors. Hypothyroidism was significantly more common in patients after chemoradiotherapy than in those who received only chemotherapy (χ2=9.4, р=0.002). In patients with hyperparathyroidism, there were negative correlations between PTH levels and BMD in the lumbar spine (r=-0.74, p=0.00002) and in the femoral neck (r=-0.66, p=0.0003). Men with HL demonstrated lower free testosterone concentrations when compared to control (p=0.04); LH and FSH levels were elevated (p=0.0004 and p=0.04, respectively). In men with HL the levels of DHEA-S were reduced (p=0.0009). The increased SHBG concentrations were revealed in 13 (23.6%) men. Women of reproductive age with HL had higher levels of LH in the luteal phase (p=0.05) and FSH in the follicular phase (p=0.02) than controls.
conclusionThe data indicate a high prevalence of the dysfunctions of thyroid, parathyroid glands, and gonads in HL survivors. Screening for endocrine disorders in these patients is highly recommended.
