Impact of growth hormone on scoliosis.
Review in Pediatric discovery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Growth hormone (GH) therapy has been used in patients with growth retardation and short stature due to various reasons. The safety of GH treatment is still debatable, one of which is the occurrence and development of scoliosis. In order to explore the effects of GH on the occurrence or progression of scoliosis, this review summarizes previous studies, summarizes the influence of GH treatment on the pathogenesis and progression of scoliosis, and analyzes the possible mechanism of GH in the pathogenesis and progression of scoliosis. Hopefully, it can provide a direction for future research.
