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

In this case report, we present the case of a 31-year-old man who presented with primary infertility, azoospermia and occasional sexual dysfunction. History and general physical examination were unremarkable. Local examination showed bilateral low volume testes and remaining aspects of the male reproductive tract were unremarkable. Detailed investigation showed a hypergonadotropic hypogonadism suggestive of primary testicular failure. Genetic screening showed a 46XX karyotype and Y chromosome testing was positive for sex-determining region (SRY) gene. Ultrasound abdomen was normal renal system and adrenal glands. A diagnosis of 46XX testicular disorders of sex development (DSD) was made. The incidence of this disorder is estimated to be 1:20,000 males. Such syndromic male partners generally have normal external genitalia and discover this disorder only in adulthood because of infertility. Such men have small volume testes, azoospermia and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. Genetic and endocrine consultations are necessary to manage hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. Testicular sperm extraction is not recommended as there are deletions in all regions of Y chromosome, and adoption or assisted reproduction technology with a sperm donor are fertility options.
