[Avoidance and management of hypoparathyroidism after thyroid gland surgery].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Postoperative hypoparathyroidism after bilateral thyroid gland surgery or after interventions for recurrence is defined as intact parathyroid hormone levels (iPTH) < 15 pg/ml with simultaneous normal, below normal and markedly decreased serum calcium levels. After bilateral thyroid surgery and after reoperations a single iPTH measurement performed 12-24 h postoperatively can be used to predict parathyroid metabolism. Patients with an iPTH level ≥ 15 pg/ml may be discharged safely, patients with an iPTH < 10 pg/ml must be substituted with calcium and vitamin D and patients with an iPTH between 10 and 15 pg/ml (grey zone) may be discharged if a second measurement 48 h after surgery documents an iPTH ≥ 15 pg/ml. This procedure increases the length of hospital stay. Patients in the (grey zone) must be substituted. The iPTH level and its course determine the necessity, dose and length of calcium and vitamin D substitution.
