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

Isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD) may be congenital, often due to genetic mutations, or acquired as a result of other factors such as cranial irradiation. The commonest genes implicated in its genetic etiology are those encoding growth hormone (GH1) and the receptor for GH-releasing hormone (GHRHR). Rarely, IGHD may be caused by mutations in transcription factors (HESX1, SOX3, OTX2) or be the first presentation before the development of other pituitary hormone deficiencies. IGHD has been classified in four genetic forms (type IA, IB, II and III). Despite the increasing number of genes implicated in the etiology of IGHD, mutations in known genes account only for a small percentage of cases; therefore, other as yet unidentified factors may be implicated in its etiology. Although there is no strict genotype/phenotype correlation in patients with IGHD, there are some emerging patterns that may guide us towards a genetic diagnosis of the condition. There is increasing understanding that the phenotype of patients with IGHD is highly variable and sometimes even evolving, dictating the need for long term follow-up in these cases.
