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

Noonan syndrome is a genetic, developmental disorder characterized by facial deformities, congenital heart defects, webbed neck, wide space nipples, and growth hormone deficiencies. We report a case of a 15-year-old female patient who presented to the outpatient department with recurrent puffiness of both eyes, easy fatiguability, and dyspnea on exertion. The condition was associated with bilateral proximal muscular weakness of lower limbs with positive Gower's sign. On examination, the patient had a webbed neck, hypertelorism, a shielded chest, short stature, and a high-arched palate. Thyroid function tests revealed hypothyroidism. Chromosomal analysis revealed 46 XX. After excluding Turner syndrome on karyotyping, Noonan syndrome with hypothyroidism was diagnosed. The patient was started on levothyroxine and referred to a pediatric endocrinologist for further growth and development assessment. Autoimmune hypothyroidism in a patient with Noonan Syndrome is rare; it may occur as a separate entity or have some genetic susceptibility. Further research is needed to determine the association of autoimmune hypothyroidism with Noonan syndrome.
