Adolescent onset of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. 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
An adolescent female was evaluated for fatigue, anorexia and unintentional weight loss of 7 kg. Initial investigations revealed subclinical autoimmune thyroid dysfunction, which progressed to overt hypothyroidism necessitating thyroxine replacement. She had entered early puberty, but this did not appear to be progressing. A high index of suspicion for coexisting endocrinopathies resulted in a diagnosis of Addison's disease and consequently autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2 (Schmidt syndrome). While basal gonadotropins were normal, anti-Mullerian hormone was low and ovarian autoantibodies were positive, consistent with preclinical premature ovarian failure. Glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid replacement were instituted. Puberty progressed and menarche was subsequently attained. Screening for other autoantibodies was undertaken; however, none are positive to date.
