Clinical Management of Postoperative Growth Hormone Deficiency in Hypothalamic-Pituitary Tumors.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The present review focuses on growth hormone (GH) deficiency in pediatric and adult patients following surgery for hypothalamic-pituitary tumors, with a special emphasis on hormone replacement therapy with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH). The symptoms and metabolic changes associated with GH deficiency are reviewed, and the potential risks and therapeutic outcomes of rhGH treatment in these patients are discussed. This review emphasizes the importance of rhGH in the normalization of growth in children and the improvement of quality of life (QoL) and metabolic health in adults. Aspects related to efficacy, safety, dosage, duration of treatment, and QoL in this population are analyzed. The need for regular follow-up and dose adjustment to maintain the optimal IGF-I levels in these patients is emphasized, as is the importance of individualized assessment and collaboration with a specialized multidisciplinary medical team to make the appropriate therapeutic decisions. Furthermore, continuous follow-up are necessary to optimize the clinical outcomes in this patient population.
