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

Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare endocrine malignancy that is typically difficult to diagnose at presentation. Here, we report a 63 year-old man who had symptomatic hypercalcemia. Investigations revealed a thyroid nodule and a lateral neck mass that was biopsied and diagnosed as "suspicious for a neuroendocrine neoplasm." He underwent total thyroidectomy with central and left neck node dissection. Histology and immunohistochemistry revealed an intrathyroidal angioinvasive parathyroid carcinoma with lymph node metastases. The tumor showed loss of parafibromin expression; germline testing revealed no pathogenic germline variants of
