Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The normal development of puberty depends on the specific pulsatility of gonadorelin, which is finely regulated by genetic and environmental factors. In the published literature, eating disorders figure as a cause of pubertal delay/arrest in females but are rarely considered in males with disordered puberty. A 16.7-year-old male was referred to the Department of Pediatrics with arrested puberty due to severe malnutrition in the context of food restriction. Past medical history was relevant for asthma. Generalized cachexia, facial lanugo hair, cutaneous xerosis, and Russell's sign were noted; he had a height of 155.5 cm (-2.5 SD; target height: 168 cm, -1.1 SD) and a BMI of 12.4 kg/m
