MULTIGLANDULAR PARATHYROID GLAND DISEASE: AN INCIDENTAL DISCOVERY IN NORMOCALCEMIC PATIENTS DURING THYROID SURGERY.
Article in Acta endocrinologica (Bucharest, Romania : 2005). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
contextSeveral enlarged parathyroid glands could be found during thyroid surgery in normocalcemic patients without evidence of primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism, indicating multiglandular parathyroid gland disease (MGD).

methodsAn analysis of clinical data from 3,561 patients to be surgically treated for thyroid diseases revealed 219 (6%) patients with MGD and normal serum Ca
