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.

Abstract

introductionTriptorelin is available as 1- and 3-month prolonged-release (PR) formulations; at the time of the study, only the former was approved for central precocious puberty (CPP) in China. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of the triptorelin 3-month PR formulation in Chinese children with CPP.

methodsIn this 12-month, prospective, open-label, multicentre, single-arm study (NCT04736602), Chinese children (mean age [standard deviation (SD)], 7.6 ± 0.8 years) with CPP received triptorelin pamoate 15 mg on day 1 and at months 3, 6 and 9. The primary endpoint was the proportion with luteinizing hormone (LH) suppression (stimulated peak LH ≤ 3 IU/L after gonadotropin-releasing hormone [GnRH] stimulation) at month 3. Secondary endpoints included changes from baseline in hormone levels and clinical parameters, as well as safety assessments.

resultsOverall, 32 children were enrolled, including three boys. LH suppression to prepubertal levels (≤ 3 IU/L) after GnRH stimulation was observed in 100%, 93.5% and 93.5% of participants at months 3, 6 and 12, respectively. Basal and peak LH and follicle-stimulating hormone levels were substantially suppressed at months 3, 6 and 12, and most participants showed sex hormone suppression. At months 6 and 12 respectively 92.9% and 89.3% of girls had stable breast development, and all boys had stable genital development. There was a decrease in mean growth velocity from baseline (8.96 cm/year) to months 3, 6 and 12 (8.07, 5.24 and 6.94 cm/year, respectively). The mean difference between bone and chronological age decreased from baseline (2.85 years) to month 12 (2.39 years). In girls, uterine length was stable or reduced at month 12; in boys, testicular volume was reduced. Triptorelin was well tolerated.

conclusionThe triptorelin 3-month PR formulation demonstrated similar efficacy to that previously reported in non-Chinese patients with CPP and had an acceptable safety profile. This supports triptorelin 3-month PR as a viable option for Chinese children with CPP.
