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

One in 5,000 to 1 in 50,000 births have multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). MEN1 is a hereditary syndrome clinically defined by the presence of two of the following endocrine tumors in the same patient: parathyroid adenomas, entero-pancreatic endocrine tumors and pituitary tumors. Most commonly, patients with MEN1 manifest primarily with signs and symptoms linked to primary hyperparathyroidism. By age 50, it is estimated that 100% of patients with MEN1 will have been diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism. These patients will need to undergo resection of their hyperfunctioning glands, however there is no clear consensus on which procedure to perform and when to perform it in these patients. In this original study we describe and explain the rational of our peri-operative approach and management at MD Anderson Cancer Center of MEN1 patients with hyperparathyroidism. This protocol includes preoperative evaluation, intraoperative decision-making and detailed surgical technique adopted for these patients' care. Additionally we review follow-up and disease management in instances of recurrent primary hyperparathyroidism in patients with MEN1 syndrome.
