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

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical value of ultrasonography in the management of disorders of sex development (DSDs). Methods: Ultrasonographic appearance and clinical data of 82 cases with DSD were reviewed retrospectively. Results: In total, there were 54 cases with the male phenotype and 28 cases with the female phenotype. All 12 cases with ovotesticular DSD were confirmed by surgery or pathological examination. Furthermore, 2 of 12 cases with ovotesticular DSD were misdiagnosed by ultrasonography. Conclusions: Ultrasonography can not only evaluate the internal sex organs in pediatric patients, but also estimate the type, location, size, and morphology of the gonads, which provides important imaging evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
