Endocrine Disorders in Childhood Brain Tumour Survivors: A Single-Centre Study.
Article in Journal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: The study aims to determine the prevalence and risk factors for endocrine disorders in childhood brain tumour survivors. Methodology: Included in the study were 124 childhood brain tumour survivors aged 18 years old or younger with either stable disease or in remission, and had survived for at least 2 years after diagnosis. Demographic data (age at diagnosis, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status), clinical clues for endocrine disorders, anthropometrics (weight, height, midparental height), pubertal staging, tumour-related characteristics, treatment modalities and endocrine laboratory measurements at diagnosis and during follow up were obtained. Logistic regression was applied to evaluate risk factors for endocrine disorders in childhood brain tumour survivors. Results: The prevalence of endocrine disorders in childhood brain tumour survivors was 62.1%. The risk factors were high BMI [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.29, 95% CI: 1.12 to 1.5], high-risk site [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 7.15, 95% CI: 1.41 to 36.3] and chemotherapy [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 0.18, 95% CI: 0.05 to 0.62]. Conclusion: The prevalence of endocrine disorders in childhood brain tumour survivors in our centre was 62.1%. The significant risk factors were high BMI, tumour location (suprasellar and intrasellar) and chemotherapy.
