Hypopituitarism After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Hypopituitarism is characterized by an underactive pituitary gland and may result in growth hormone deficiency, hypothyroidism, testosterone deficiency, and/or adrenal insufficiency. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) exposure is a known risk factor for hypopituitarism. However, patients with hypopituitarism secondary to TBI exposure may go undiagnosed because the signs and symptoms of hypopituitarism can be subtle. This case report describes a 40-year-old male US military veteran who endorsed fatigue, sexual dysfunction, and weight gain several years after experiencing multiple mild TBIs during his military service. He ultimately underwent a full neuroendocrine workup that revealed low testosterone in addition to previously diagnosed hypothyroidism with a resolution of symptoms after starting testosterone therapy.
