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

backgroundAlthough anorexia nervosa might delay puberty, a structured assessment at its onset remains crucial in excluding congenital delayed puberty diseases. CASE PRESENTATION: During the follow-up of a 15-year-old girl suffering from anorexia nervosa, a change of treatment has led to a thorough medical history revealing the absence of the olfactory bulb. Kallmann syndrome diagnosis was made on a blood analysis and the patient was treated with a multidisciplinary approach.

conclusionAfter the diagnosis, our patient was relieved as it has clarified some of her symptoms including anosmia, poor height and maturational delay. Too often a delayed puberty is attributed to anorexia nervosa itself without considering medical history. This case definitely shows the importance of performing a case history and early diagnosis in pre-pubertal AN to rule out other rare diseases and avoid mid- and long-term sequelae. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV (case study).
