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

Objective: 5α-Reductase type 2 deficiency (5α-RD2) is an autosomal recessive differences/disorders of sex development caused by Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang, and Chinese Medical Journals databases from inception to December 2025. A total of 279 genetically confirmed patients with 5α-RD2 from 36 countries (64.77% from Asia) were included. Demographic, clinical, biochemical, genetic, and prognostic data were extracted and analyzed using SPSS 25.0. Results: Seventy-eight pathogenic Conclusion: We verified that the genotype-phenotype correspondence is non-linear and multifactorial, jointly modulated by mutation subtype, residual enzyme activity, endocrine axis status, geographical disparities, consanguinity, and regional medical resource availability. These findings provide more reliable evidence for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis assessment.
