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

Background/Objective: We present a boy with McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS)-associated precocious puberty (PP) who achieved normal adult height without treatment. Case Report: The patient presented at 10 years of age with PP and fibrous dysplasia of the right humerus. Examination showed a height 148.7 cm, Tanner 2 pubic hair and 12-15 cc testes. The Bone age (BA) was 13 years with a predicted adult height of 175 cm vs. mid parental target height of 173 cm. Laboratory parameters were as follows: luteinizing hormone (LH) 0.745 mIU/mL (0.2-4.9 mIU/mL), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) 0.933 mIU/mL (1.8-3.2 mIU/mL), testosterone 42 ng/dL (18-150 ng/dL), inhibin B 436.6 pg/mL (41-238 pg/mL) and AMH 36.1 ng/mL (45.26-191.34 ng/mL). The DNA testing result of tissue from the right humerus was positive for Discussion: PP is reported in approximately 15% of boys with MAS. PP leads to BA advancement and reduction in final adult height. Our patient achieved normal adult height without treatment in the absence of excess growth hormone. Conclusion: Boys with MAS and PP with slow BA advancement may achieve normal adult height without treatment even in the absence of excess growth hormone.
