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

Cases of young patients combined with intracranial germinoma and parathyroid adenoma are extremely rare. A 6.25-year-old boy was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency at his first visit and was then treated with growth hormone substitution. Later, he was clinically diagnosed with central diabetes insipidus (CDI) and primary hyperparathyroidism, whereas no abnormal imaging evidence was identified, except for a thickened pituitary stalk. Due to persistent follow-up, parathyroid adenoma and intracranial germinoma were verified in succession. The patient had derived benefits from parathyroidectomy and chemotherapy plus radiotherapy. We concluded that children and adolescents who present with CDI and pituitary stalk thickening should undergo repeated screenings for underlying intracranial germinoma. Multiple lesions involving the parathyroid gland and pituitary should alert physicians to the possibility of multiple endocrine neoplasia or other inherited diseases; therefore, genetic screening is recommended.
