Congenital aromatase deficiency in an adult male: A case report of clinical course and symptom reversal with estrogen supplementation.
Article in Urology 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
Congenital aromatase deficiency is an autosomal recessive CYP19A1 loss-of-function disorder that blocks conversion of androgens to estrogens. A man with homozygous CYP19A1 c.628G > A (exon 5) presented with longstanding fatigue, low libido, and desire to maintain fertility. Physiologic estrogen replacement was started with transdermal estradiol 0.0375 mg. After three months of estrogen therapy, the patient reported markedly improved energy and libido. Follow-up evaluation showed a rise in serum estradiol with normalization of gonadotropins, while maintaining spermatogenesis. This case illustrates the essential role of estrogen in male physiology, sexual function, and fertility. Estradiol replacement can alleviate hypoestrogenic symptoms with preservation of spermatogenesis.
