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: Non-thyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) is the most common endocrine dysfunction in critically ill patients and is often associated with poor prognosis. Thyroid dysfunction and immune cell disturbances are frequently observed in patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS). This study aims to evaluate the impact of NTIS on the prognosis of SFTS patients and to explore the relationship between thyroid hormones (THs) and immune cell profiles. Methods: Adult patients admitted to Yantai Qishan Hospital for SFTS from January 2023 to December 2023 with no prior history of thyroid disease were retrospectively recruited. Multivariable regressions were used to assess the associations between NTIS and clinical outcomes. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationships between immune cells and THs. SFTS patients with NTIS were categorized into four subtypes based on different levels of FT4 and TSH, and the association between NTIS subtypes and mortality was further analyzed. Results: Of the 84 SFTS patients included in the study, 62 (73.8%) were diagnosed with NTIS. Independent risk predictors which may affect prognosis of SFTS patients include NTIS subtype ( Conclusion: NTIS is common in SFTS patients, and SFTS patients with NTIS have a lower survival rate compared to euthyroid patients. The mortality risk in NTIS type 3 patients is higher than in those with NTIS type 1.
