PHPT Masquerading as Rickets in Children and Presenting with Rare Skeletal Manifestations: Report of Three Cases and Review of Literature.
Article in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an uncommon condition in children and adolescents. However, rapid growth spurt during puberty may result in unmasking and development of certain skeletal manifestations of PHPT. We present three cases of PHPT associated with rare skeletal manifestations of rickets. All three patients had radiological evidence of rickets with primary hyperparathyroidism. All the three patients had single gland adenoma. Literature is sparse regarding reversal of features of rickets following parathyroidectomy. In all three patients of our series, there was a complete resolution of bone/joint pain. However, in two children only the genu valgum persisted but their growth was normal and they had no proximal muscle weakness. In another child multiple corrective surgeries were done to correct the deformities.
