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

Individuals with an incongruence of their chromosomal sex and genital appearance are classified as having a disorder of sexual development (DSD), and they often present with ambiguous genitalia. The diagnosis and management of DSD patients are usually challenging and require a multidisciplinary approach. Gender assignment should not be based solely on physical exam and imaging but also on the genotype and hormonal function of the gonads. We present an infant born with ambiguous genitalia; the parents were told they were having a male infant during the prenatal ultrasound but at birth, the infant was found to have female-appearing external genitalia with no palpable gonads. MRI of the abdomen was inconclusive, but further workup, including karyotype, hormonal function, and intraoperative evaluation, was consistent with a male infant. He was, therefore, subsequently assigned to the male sex.
