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 a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in genes involved in cortisol biosynthesis in the adrenal gland. Depending on the enzymatic defect, the symptoms, signs, and laboratory findings differ. The most common form, accounting for more than 95% of cases, is caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Delay in the diagnosis and treatment can lead to life-threatening adrenal crisis with hemodynamic collapse. We report a case of a five-day-old male neonate with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and salt-wasting crisis. The diagnosis was made after comprehensive assessment of clinical features and laboratory investigations. He was treated with hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone and was discharged after one week.
