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

purpose of reviewDisorders of sex development (DSD) are a diverse group of conditions affecting gonadal development, sexual differentiation, or chromosomal sex. In this review, we will discuss recent literature on the genetic causes of DSD, with a focus on novel genetic sequencing technologies, new phenotypes associated with known DSD genes, and increasing recognition of the role of genetic regulatory elements in DSD. RECENT

findingsWe performed a comprehensive search of PubMed through August 2016 to identify important peer-reviewed publications from 2015 to 2016 on the topic of DSD genetics. SUMMARY: Whole-exome sequencing was used to successfully identify genetic causes of DSD in 35% of a cohort of 46,XY patients who had not previously received a genetic diagnosis. A novel mutation in NR5A1 has been identified as a cause of 46,XX testicular and ovotesticular DSD, demonstrating a previously unappreciated role of NR5A1 in preventing testicular differentiation in 46,XX individuals. Genetic regulatory elements of SOX9 have been identified as causes of 46,XX and 46,XY DSD.
