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
Primary hyperparathyroidism is overproduction of parathyroid hormone, causing hypercalcemia. Parathyroid adenomas have been found to be the etiology for 80% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism, while almost a quarter of them are ectopic. We present a case of ectopic thymic parathyroid adenoma, treated by the thoracoscopic approach. Preoperative computed tomogram and technetium-99-sestamibi imaging showed an adenoma, located in the front mid-mediastinum, approximately 8 × 10 mm in size. Resection of the tumor was indicated according to the persistent hypercalcemia after unsuccessful surgical treatment performed 3 years ago. It was decided to perform a parathyroidectomy during thoracoscopy. The diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma was established on postoperative histopathology staining. The patient was discharged from hospital 5 days after the surgery. We found this minimally invasive operation to be an effective and well-tolerated treatment option, determined by the experience of the surgeon.
