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

objectiveClinical observations show that the development of puberty occurs earlier, and the course is accelerated in children born small for gestational age (SGA) compared to peers born average for gestational age (AGA). The aim of this study was to investigate the response to GnRH analogue (GnRAa) treatment in SGA and AGA girls with central precocious puberty (CPP).

methodsThis study included 16 SGA and 137 AGA girls who were receiving GnRHa treatment due to onset of central puberty before the age of eight. SGA group included girls who exhibited normal growth and did not receive growth hormone GH treatment. The response to treatment parameters were compared at the 12

resultsThe mean age at the onset of puberty, anthropometric data, bone age, difference between bone age and decimal age were not different between SGA and AGA groups, as well as baseline luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol, stimulated LH and LH/FSH ratio. Height SDS, BMI SDS, and predicted adult height at presentation, at 12

conclusionThe findings of our study indicate that SGA girls with precocious puberty who have achieved growth catch-up and lack additional risk factors require a similar approach to AGA girls when initiating and modifying treatment during the follow-up period.
