Parathyroidectomy Without the Utilisation of iPTH: The Gold Standard is Still a Good Operation-How Understanding the Anatomy and a Simple US Can Help.
Article in World journal of surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Parathyroid surgery is frequently performed after at least two preoperative localisation studies, in addition to the use of intraoperative ioPTH. The key to performing a successful parathyroidectomy is reliant on the surgeon having an outstanding knowledge of parathyroid embryology and anatomy. With this, it is possible to undertake surgery with a simple neck ultrasound and without more expensive pre- and intraoperative localisation studies.
