Imaging findings in a male pediatric patient by central precocious puberty: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Precocious puberty (PP) refers to the early onset of secondary sexual characteristics, occurring before 8 years of age in females and 9 in males. This condition commonly results from a premature activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, a phenomenon identified as central precocious puberty (CPP). Central precocious puberty (CPP) in females is predominantly idiopathic, whereas in males, it is mostly caused by hypothalamic-pituitary lesions. Diagnosis is established through comprehensive clinical assessment, encompassing a thorough anamnesis from both the patient and their caregivers, detailed physical examination, and Tanner staging conducted by a pediatric endocrinologist. Neuroimaging, particularly brain MRI, is employed to detect intracranial anomalies or pituitary pathology, with pituitary microadenomas being a commonly observed finding. This report presents the case of a 5-year-old male who exhibited signs of secondary sexual development, with testicular volume consistent with Tanner stage 5 based on laboratory evaluation. Assessment of skeletal maturation revealed a significantly advanced bone age, approximating that of a 11-year-old child. The patient underwent an ultrasound examination by the results of testicular volume greater than the normal value of his age. Due to the results of the examination, the patient underwent an MRI examination of the head to find the cause by the conclusion on MRI, namely pituitary microadenoma.
