An update on the genetics of benign pituitary adenomas in children and adolescents.
Article in Current opinion in endocrine and metabolic research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pituitary adenomas in children and adolescents are rare tumors that often result from a tumor predisposition syndrome. Several inherited causes for pituitary adenomas have been identified in the last few years, including multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 and 4, Carney's complex, Tuberous sclerosis, DICER1 syndrome, neurofibromatosis type 1, McCune Albright syndrome, familial isolated pituitary adenoma, and pituitary adenoma association due to defects in succinate dehydrogenase genes. Recently, our group discovered X-linked acrogigantism (X-LAG), a new pediatric disorder that is caused by an Xq26.3 genomic duplication (involving the
