Turner syndrome in childhood and adolescence.
Article in Expert review of endocrinology & metabolism, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This article reviews current patterns of ascertainment, clinical characteristics and quality of care for girls with Turner syndrome, based on a cohort of 100 girls (aged 7-17 years) prospectively evaluated at the National Institute of Child Health since 2001. Approximately 25% were diagnosed prenatally or at birth owing to webbed neck and other features typical of fetal lymphedema, few were diagnosed during early childhood, with the majority undiagnosed until age 9 years or older. Major clinical features included thyroid autoimmunity (51%), congenital cardiovascular anomalies (44%), liver abnormalities (36%), hypertension (34%), hearing loss (30%) and renal anomalies (18%). Of the group, 75% were being or had been treated with growth hormone. These girls were an average of 5 cm taller and significantly less obese than the untreated group. We discuss new guidelines for the initiation of puberty and urgent research needed to promote the health and longevity of girls suffering from Turner syndrome as they become adults.
