CHARGE syndrome with both primary and secondary hypogonadism.

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
Introduction: CHARGE syndrome is a rare disorder that causes congenital abnormalities in multiple organs, including secondary hypogonadism. We report, herein, a unique case of CHARGE syndrome with both primary and secondary hypogonadism and discuss the possible causes and pathogenesis in this patient. Case presentation: A 15-year-old boy with delayed secondary sexual characteristics and non-palpable testes was referred to our hospital. Physical examination and detection of a chromodomain-helicase-deoxyribonucleic acid-binding protein 7 gene mutation confirmed CHARGE syndrome. Hormone stimulation tests suggested both primary and secondary hypogonadism. Laparoscopic bilateral orchiectomy was performed because of decreased testosterone production and atrophy in both testes. Pathological examination of the testes revealed maturation arrest, germ cell neoplasm in situ, and decreased expression of steroid synthase. Conclusion: This appears to be the first report of CHARGE syndrome with both primary and secondary hypogonadism demonstrated in endocrinological and histological examinations.
