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

introductionRecent studies have shown 11-oxygenated androgens (11oAs) are the dominant androgens in premature adrenarche (PA). Our objective was to compare 11oAs and conventional androgens in a well-defined cohort of children with PA or premature pubarche (PP) and correlate these androgens with metabolic markers.

methodsA prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at a university hospital. Fasting early morning serum steroids (including 11oAs) and metabolic biomarkers were compared and their correlations determined in children ages 3-8 years (F) or 3-9 years (M) with PA or PP (5 M and 15 F) and healthy controls (3 M and 8 F).

resultsThere were no differences between PA, PP, and controls or between PA and PP subgroups for sex, BMI z-score, or criteria for childhood metabolic syndrome. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) was elevated only in the PA subgroup, as defined. 11oAs were elevated versus controls in PA and PP although no differences in 11oAs were noted between PA and PP. Within the case cohort, there was high correlation of T and A4 with 11-ketotestosterone and 11β-hydroxyandrostenedione. While lipids did not differ, median insulin and HOMA-IR were higher but not statistically different in PA and PP.

conclusionsPA and PP differ only by DHEAS and not by 11oAs or insulin sensitivity, consistent with 11oAs - rather than DHEAS - mediating the phenotypic changes of pubarche. Case correlations suggest association of 11oAs with T and A4. These data are the first to report the early morning steroid profiles including 11oAs in a well-defined group of PA, PP, and healthy children.
