A rare disease of Kallmann syndrome: A case report.

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
Kallmann syndrome (KS) is a rare genetic disorder that refers to the association between hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and anosmia or hyposmia due to abnormal migration of olfactory axons and gonadotropin-releasing hormone-producing neurons. Here, we present a case of a 40-year-old man who presented with psychological problems (emotional disturbance) as the chief complaint. Physical examination revealed gynecomastia, absence of facial and axillary hair, and sparse pubic hair, micropenis, undescended right testicle, low libido and lack of sexual function. A related finding is anosmia, a high-pitched voice. Hormonal analysis revealed hypogonadotropic hypogonadism profile, and chromosomal examination revealed a normal male karyotype. Abdominal ultrasound showed normal organs, and scrotal ultrasound showed an undescended right testicle (UDT) and small testes. Brain MRI revealed pituitary gland hypoplasia and olfactory bulb agenesis. These findings are characteristic of KS. He underwent orchidopexy dextra. He is now on a regular follow-up. Hormone replacement therapy is planned. Thus, besides medical treatments, psychological care is an integral component of the treatment strategy for this patient.
