Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity is significantly increased in newly diagnosed hypertensive patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and significantly related with serum calcium level.

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
backgroundPrimary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is a rare cause of secondary hypertension (HT), but in patients with PHP, HT is very common and 20-80% of patients have HT. The aim of this study was to evaluate the change in carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (CF-PWV) in hypertensive patients with PHP, and was to determine the clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic parameters associated with CF-PWV.
methodsThe study included 83 newly diagnosed hypertensive patients with PHP and 83 patients with newly diagnosed essential HT without PHP. All patients underwent echocardiography and CF-PWV measurements.
resultsIn patients with PHP, blood urea nitrogen, hs-CRP, uric acid, serum and urine calcium, parathyroid hormone level, CF-PWV value, LV wall thickness, LVMI, aortic and left atrium (LA) diameter, and presence of LVH and CF-PWV > 10 m/s were higher, and serum phosphorus levels were lower. Serum calcium, LA diameter, and LVMI values were closely correlated with CF-PWV. In the ROC analysis, the AUROC was calculated as 0.825 for calcium level to determine the patients with increased CF-PWV. When the serum calcium value was taken as 10 mg/dL, it was determined with CF-PWV > 10 m/s were 79.5% sensitivity and 78.2% specificity.
conclusionCF-PWV significantly increases in newly diagnosed hypertensive patients with PHP and significantly related to serum calcium level. To protect against target organ damage, high serum calcium levels should be monitored as well as blood pressure in hypertensive patients with PHP.
