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
backgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) in men is associated with a high incidence of hypogonadism. Testosterone is a steroid hormone and one of the final metabolites of steroidogenesis, which causes interest in assessing the content of key steroid hormones, their precursors and metabolites in hypogonadal and eugonadal men with T2DM.
aimsAssessment of the features of steroidogenesis in men with hypogonadism in T2DM using tandem mass spectrometry. MATERIALS AND
methodsA full-design, cross-sectional, screening, single-center, non-interventional study included men with T2DM, who were he was treated in Endocrinology Research Centre, Moscow. The study was conducted from October 2021 to January 2022. Medical history assessment, physical examination with determination of body mass index (BMI), measurement of key steroid hormones, their precursors and metabolites by isotope dilution liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were performed. The groups were compared using the Mann-Whitney U-test for quantitative indicators and χ² with Yates' correction for qualitative ones. Correlation analysis was performed by the Spearman correlation method. When determining the criterion of statistical significance, the Bonferroni correction was applied.
resultsPatients with hypogonadism had statistically significantly more pronounced obesity compared with eugonadal men. In a comparative analysis of patients, depending on the presence of hypogonadism, there were statistically significantly lower levels of androgen precursors 17-hydroxypregnenolone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone in hypogonadal men. At the same time, a positive statistically significant correlation was found between total testosterone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone. In addition, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, although to a lesser extent, but positively correlated with other androgens - androstenedione (r=0,328; p<0,001) and dehydroepiandrosterone (r=0,183; p=0,004). >< 0,001) and dehydroepiandrosterone (r=0,183; p=0,004).
conclusionsIn this investigation the prevalence of male hypogonadism in type 2 diabetes, determined by high-precision tandem mass spectrometry, was 69,5%. There was no effect of the disease on the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid links of adrenal steroidogenesis. Hypogonadism was associated with decreased levels of a number of testosterone precursors. The most significant of them was 17-hydroxyprogesterone, which can be considered as a marker of testicular steroidogenesis.
