Non-adherence to consensus guidelines on preoperative imaging in surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism.
Article in Laryngoscope investigative otolaryngology, 2020. 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the adherence to consensus guidelines on preoperative imaging of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) in real local practice.
methodsThis was a retrospective multicenter cohort study of 411 patients undergoing parathyroidectomy for pHPT from 2007 to 2017 in three referral centers.
resultsIn 286/411 patients (69%) the preoperative imaging workup adhered to guidelines (utilizing ultrasound and parathyroid scintigraphy). In patients in whom guidelines were followed 63% were discharged within one day versus 37% in whom guidelines were not followed (
conclusionThe level of compliance to preoperative imaging guidelines is suboptimal in this population. Patients in whom adherence was achieved showed a shorter length of stay. More education of physicians is required regarding the appropriate preoperative imaging workup in pHPT. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2b (individual cohort study).
