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

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an inherited disorder causing adrenal hormone imbalance and organ overgrowth, leading to phenotype-genotype mismatches. A 10-year-old phenotypic male with impalpable testes and hypospadias had ambiguous genitalia and an empty scrotum. Imaging showed intra-abdominal gonads and no uterus. Blood tests revealed low cortisol, high ACTH, and 17-OHP. Karyotyping confirmed 46 XX. CAH can virilize 46 XX individuals, sometimes resulting in male assignment. Late presentation with male identity may support gender choice for better psychological outcomes.
