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

Introduction: The status of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E) across the spectrum ofHashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), particularly regarding sex-specific patterns, remainsincompletely characterized. Methods: This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the associations of these vitamins with thyroid autoimmunity and function. We analyzed 196 adults, focusing on the 136 women stratified into healthy controls (HC), euthyroid HT (E-HT), and dysfunctional HT (HT-dys). Results: In women, serum vitamin A levels were significantly lower in both the E-HT and HT-dys groups compared to the HC group. Lipid-normalized vitamin E ( Conclusion: This exploratory study identifies distinct associations of vitamins A and E with disease activity in women with HT, highlighting the need for longitudinal and interventional studies to further explore these relationships.
