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

backgroundTo assess the differences in vitamin D levels in girls with rapidly progressive (RP) or slowly progressive (SP) central precocious puberty (CPP) and to compare whether the factors related to RP-CPP influenced the vitamin D status. A cross-sectional study was performed among girls with CPP classified as RP-CPP or SP-CPP.

methodsThe baseline data, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulation test results, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels, and season of sample collection were analyzed.

resultsThe mean 25OHD level in 340 girls was 15.89 ± 6.87 ng/mL, of whom only 10 (2.9%) had normal levels (≥ 30 ng/mL). A total of 114 girls in the SP-CPP group and 226 in the RP-CPP group had similar chronological age, disease course, height SDS, bone mineral density, baseline follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), peak FSH, and 25OHD levels. Developmental age, body mass index (BMI), BMI SDS, peak luteinizing hormone (LH)/FSH, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and IGF-1 SDS were independent risk factors for RP-CPP. Significant differences were observed among the different serum 25OHD levels in terms of season, disease course, IGF1 level, and BMI SDS (P < 0.05). Moreover, the sampling season was strongly correlated with serum 25OHD levels (r = 0.402, P < 0.001).

conclusionThe vitamin D levels were generally deficient or insufficient in girls with CPP, but were not related to the different types of CPP. High BMI levels, IGF1 levels, or peak LH/FSH ratio, but not vitamin D levels, could promote the progression of RP-CPP. Seasonal factors mainly influenced the vitamin D levels.
