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

introductionMixed gonadal dysgenesis (MGD) or 45,X/46,XY mosaicism is a sex chromosomal disorder of sexual development. We aim to characterize the clinical and reproductive features of 45X/46 XY attending tertiary care center in Kerala. MATERIALS AND

methodRetrospective review of clinical records which include clinical presentation, hormonal profile, cytogenetics, psychosexual assessment, and histopathology of gonadectomy specimen of ten cases of 45X/46 XY mosaicism who attended Endocrinology/ OBG out patient department from 2008 to 2020.

resultsThe mean ages of all the cases were 12 ± 3.79 years (± 2 SD). Short stature was universally seen. Virilisation was the most common manifestation (80%) followed by delayed puberty (20%). Autoimmune thyroid disease was seen in 40% of cases. We noticed a delayed presentation in our clinical study. 45X/46 XY subjects who wished to continue as female underwent gonadectomy and were feminized with hormone replacement therapy. Male 45X/46 XY who retained their undescended testis is planned for periodic surveillance for malignancy.

conclusion45X/46 XY may present like Turner's syndrome in clinical practice. Early counseling and gender assignment by a panel of specialists are crucial. Delayed presentation is less commonly encountered now a day and may pose a clinical challenge. Management in 45X/46 XY is multi-disciplinary which includes Turner's like surveillance, proper sex assignment, timely genital reconstruction surgeries, gonadectomy, gonadal monitoring, and hormonal replacement therapy is needed.
