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

The thyroid gland disease incidence in hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is higher than the incidence of thyroid disease in general population. Likewise, HPT is more frequent in patients primary admitted due to thyroid disease, than in general population. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and clinical characteristics of concomitant HPT and thyroid disease, based on a single center experience. From 2009 to 2014, a total of 4882 patients underwent thyroidectomy and/or parathyroidectomy at the Center for Endocrine Surgery, Belgrade. We reviewed the database to find out indications for surgery, clinical characteristics, operative and histopathological findings. Out of 4033 patients, who underwent thyroidectomy, in 114 cases (2.8 %) parathyroidectomy was simultaneously performed. Out of these 114 patients, 42 patients (37 %) had normocalcemic HPT. Among 849 patients primary operated due to HPT, thyroid gland disease that required surgery was found in 224 (26.4 %). In patients primary seen for HPT, thyroid cancer was found in 22 (9.8 %), Hashimoto's thyroiditis in 41 (18.3 %) and micropapillary carcinoma in 36 cases (16.1 %). Due to residual or recidivant HPT, 16 patients (15 who primary underwent parathyroidectomy and 1 primary seen for thyroid disease) needed a reoperation. There are a considerable number of patients with concomitant thyroid and parathyroid disease; this justifies the routine analyses of calcemia and PTH level in patients preparing for thyroidectomy, and sets up the ground for the thyroid investigations in HPT.
