Juvenile Granulosa Cell Tumor Mimicking HAIR-AN in a 4-year-old: A Case Report
Article in Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Predominantly androgen secreting juvenile granulosa cell tumors (JGCT) are uncommon and few reports have been published. We present a case of a JGCT that presented with signs of prepubertal hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance to highlight the possible interaction between hyperandrogenemia and hyperinsulinism. A 4-year-old girl presented with acanthosis nigricans and hyperinsulinism, mimicking the hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance and acanthosis nigricans syndrome at an age much younger than is typical for this diagnosis. Laboratory studies revealed elevated insulin, inhibin A and B, and total testosterone. All laboratory results normalized after unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. The final diagnosis was Stage 1A JGCT. This case highlights the importance of including ovarian tumors in the differential diagnosis when considering causes of virilization and insulin resistance. This case also suggests a potential relationship between excess testosterone secretion and hyperinsulinemia and strengthens evidence that hyperandrogenemia may promote hyperinsulinism in ovarian disease.
