Teprotumumab in the management of thyroid eye disease mechanistic insights and adverse reactions: a comprehensive review.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Teprotumumab has shown significant efficacy in treating Thyroid Eye Disease (TED), but its adverse effects require careful management. Key reactions include hearing impairment, hyperglycemia, and potential exacerbation of pre-existing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Hearing impairment, likely due to inhibition of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), manifests as more severe sensorineural changes. Hyperglycemia results from disrupted growth hormone feedback and may be worsened by prior glucocorticoid use. Although teprotumumab does not appear to induce new diabetes cases, it can exacerbate existing hyperglycemia. Cognitive issues, infusion reactions, and other adverse effects, such as muscle cramps and weight loss, have also been observed. Management requires careful patient screening, particularly for those with histories of hearing loss, diabetes, or IBD. Further research is essential to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of these adverse effects and develop targeted preventive strategies to improve the safety and efficacy of teprotumumab in clinical practice.
