Giant Intracranial Meningiomas Requiring Surgery in 2 Transgender Women Treated With Cyproterone Acetate.

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
Progestin-associated meningioma is a rare complication of cyproterone acetate (CPA), an anti-androgen commonly prescribed in feminizing hormone therapy regimens for transgender and gender-diverse individuals. A dose-response association has been observed, particularly with longer-term exposure to doses ≥ 50 mg daily; however, the dose below which CPA use is safe remains unclear. We herein report the cases of 2 transgender women using CPA who developed meningioma. Novel aspects of our cases include: (i) the presence of symptomatic giant meningiomas (> 5 cm), including multiple meningiomas in one patient, requiring urgent surgical intervention; (ii) meningioma development with both high-dose, long duration and low-dose, shorter duration CPA; and (iii) the presence of a
