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

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), screened for in neonates, is the second most common endocrinopathy after congenital hypothyroidism.Newborn screening for CAH due to CYP21A2 deficiency is performed by immunologic assay for 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). The second-tier test for confirmation of diagnosis is carried out on recall venous blood sample from screen positives measuring 17-OHP, or other metabolites of steroid metabolism by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy. However, as steroid metabolism is dynamic, it can affect these parameters even in the recall sample of a stressed neonate. Moreover, there is some time delay in recalling the neonate for repeat testing. Reflex genetic analysis of blood spot from the initial Guthrie cards of screen positive neonates, if used for confirmatory testing, can avoid this time delay as well as the effect of stress on steroid metabolism. In this study, we used Sanger sequencing and MLPA in a reflex manner for molecular genetic analysis to confirm
