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

introductionJuvenile primary hyperparathyroidism is uncommon and more symptomatic than the adult counterpart. The aim of this prospective monocentric study, conducted in a tertiary referral center, was to evaluate the clinical, biochemical, and densitometric data, and the outcome of a series of patients with juvenile primary hyperparathyroidism. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study group included 154 patients with sporadic and familial juvenile primary hyperparathyroidism, aged ≤40 years. Relative frequency of sporadic and familial forms, comparison of the clinical and biochemical characteristics, rate of cure after parathyroidectomy and the outcome of patients not undergoing surgery were evaluated.

resultsFamilial cases (n = 42) were younger, less frequently females, and had milder disease compared to sporadic cases (n = 112). No difference was observed in biochemical and densitometric parameters. Among patients undergoing parathyroidectomy (n = 116), familial cases had a higher rate of multigland disease and a higher persistence/relapse rate compared to sporadic cases (73 vs. 3.6% and 48.1 vs. 5.7%, respectively). Patients who did not undergo parathyroidectomy had stable clinical, biochemical, and densitometric parameters during follow-up (median 27 months). Using the cut-off age of 25 years, there was no difference in clinical, biochemical and densitometric parameters between younger and older patients, with the exception of parathyroid hormone and phosphate, which were significantly lower and higher, respectively, in patients <25 years.

conclusionsIn conclusion, this prospective study shows that juvenile primary hyperparathyroidism is frequently a sporadic disease, with no difference in the biochemical phenotype between sporadic and familial forms. Patients with familial juvenile primary hyperparathyroidism have a milder clinical phenotype and higher rate of persistence/recurrence after PTx than those with sporadic juvenile primary hyperparathyroidism.
