Turner Syndrome Growth Charts: A Western India Experience.
Article in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesDisease specific growth charts are useful to monitor growth and disease progress in specific disorders such as Turner syndrome. As there is a paucity of data on spontaneous growth of Indian girls with Turner syndrome, the objectives were to construct reference curves for height and assess height velocity in Indian girls with Turner syndrome from 5 centers from western India. MATERIAL AND
methodsThree hundred forty-eight readings of height and weight on 113 genetically proven girls with Turner Syndrome from 5 centers from western India were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Data were collected over the last 2 decades (GH treatment naive girls were included). The method described by Lyon
resultsIn girls with Turner syndrome, the mean adult height was found to be 140.1 cm. Height velocity was low at all ages compared to normal girls with a notable difference beyond the age of 10 years where normally, a growth spurt is expected. The MPH Z-score correlated positively with the height Z-score. The 3
conclusionTurner syndrome charts for height are presented; these charts may be used to monitor growth in girls with Turner syndrome.
