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

High doses of oral calcium or long-term calcium infusions are recommended to correct the hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with hereditary 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3-resistant rickets (HVDRR). Preliminary studies revealed that calcimimetics may be a safe and effective therapeutic choice in children with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Our aim was to observe the efficacy of cinacalcet in the normalization of secondary hyperparathyroidism and hypophosphatemia in two siblings aged 2.5 years and 6 months with HVDRR who did not respond to traditional treatment regimes. Both patients were admitted to the hospital with severe hypocalcemia. They were treated with high doses of calcitriol and calcium infusions intravenously. Secondary hyperparathyroidism was normalized temporarily, but did not improve completely. Cinacalcet (0.25 mg/kg) once a day along with the high doses of oral calcium and calcitriol was added to the treatment schedule. After 3 months, biochemical and radiologic findings reverted to normal. Our findings indicate that cinacalcet is effective in normalizing the hyperparathyroidism and hypophosphatemia in these cases and in improving the bone pathology.
