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

X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita caused by a mutation in NR0B1/DAX-1 is a rare inherited disorder. Patients with adrenal hypoplasia congenita are usually diagnosed with primary adrenal insufficiency in infancy or early childhood and present hypogonadotropic hypogonadism during adolescence. Our patient first presented with adrenal crisis at the age of 2 months, which was managed with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. At the age of 17 years, testicular volumes of 5 mL each and a stretched penile length of 4 cm were noted. A combined pituitary function test showed a peak luteinizing hormone level of 2.68 mIU/mL, testosterone 13.5 ng/dL, confirming hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. After whole-exome sequencing, a new variant of DAX-1, c.881T>C (p.Leu294Pro), was found. He was diagnosed with X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita and then treated with human choriogonadotropin for the induction of spermatogenesis as well as with steroid replacement therapy.
