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

objectivePatients with cystic fibrosis (CF) have a high incidence of pubertal and growth delay. In girls with CF, pubertal delay has an important psychological impact. Still, only a few studies have explored the occurrence of pubertal delay in girls with CF. The aims of this study were to compare the pubertal development of girls with CF compared with healthy controls regarding Tanner staging and pelvic ultrasound and, in girls with CF, correlate the findings with those of spirometry, body mass index, Shwachman-Kulczycki score (SKS), and genotyping.

methodsThis was a cross-sectional, case-control study including 35 girls with CF aged 6-17 years and following up at the Pediatric Pulmonology Outpatient Clinic of a tertiary hospital. These patients were compared with 59 healthy controls who had undergone pelvic ultrasound as part of another study conducted by the same group. Girls with CF were consecutively enrolled in the study during their annual routine check-up visit. Data collected in the CF group included spirometry and anthropometric results, SKS values, bone age, occurrence of current cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) and

resultsPelvic ultrasound findings and Tanner stage reflected less pubertal development in girls with CF compared with healthy controls. Pubertal stage in patients with CF who presented CFRD (3.17 ± 1.16), had chronic colonization by

conclusionGirls with CF presented a delay in pubertal development evaluated by Tanner stage and ultrasound parameters, which was more evident in the presence of comorbidities.
