Review in Andrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Differences/disorders of sex development can be caused by disruptions to the molecular and cellular mechanisms that control development and sex determination of the reproductive organs with 1:100 live births affected. Multiple genes are associated with 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development that can cause varying clinical phenotypes. An accurate genetic diagnosis is essential to guide clinical care for individuals with 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development and can contribute to family planning. The use of genomics in differences/disorders of sex development has grown, with several advances employed in genetic diagnosis; however, diagnostic rates have stagnated at less than 50% for these conditions. This review will discuss 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development, its molecular causes, and the genomic technologies currently utilized for diagnosis with focus on reports from the last 5 years. We also touch on the challenges in diagnosing 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development and discuss new and future technologies that promise to improved diagnostic rates for these difficult conditions.
