Synthesis in Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06859580 (Bisphosphonate vs. Placebo Prior to Parathyroidectomy in Primary Hyperparathyroidisme), which is not on this map. Cited by 25 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

An increased risk of fractures in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has been reported in a number of relatively small studies. Performing a systematic literature search, we identified available studies and calculated common estimates by pooling results from the individual studies in a meta-analysis. Searching EMBASE and PubMed, we identified published studies reporting the risk of fractures in PHPT compared to a control group. We calculated odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). A total of 804 studies were identified of which 12 studies were included. Risk of any fracture was increased compared to controls (OR 2.01; 95% CI, 1.61-2.50; I
