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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundHyperparathyroidism (HPT) is a common endocrine disorder resulting from overproduction of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Usually HPT is caused by parathyroid adenoma (PA) or parathyroid hyperplasia (PH). Our aim is to assess clinicopathologic features associated with PA and PH in patients with HPT.

methodsWe retrospectively collected 29 cases of HPT recorded at the Department of Pathology of Hassan II University Hospital of Fes, Morocco, from 2013 to 2016.

resultsThe mean age was 52.14 ± 15.7 years (range of 22-76 years), 13 patients (44.8%) had primary HPT, 16 (55.2%) had secondary HPT. The largest size of the resected parathyroid specimens ranged from 1 to 3.6 cm (mean of 2.26 ± 0.66 cm). Seventeen patients (58.6%) had PA, the remaining cases were diagnosed as PH. There were no significant statistical differences between PA and PH in age, sex, clinical presentation, preoperative serum PTH, or in parathyroid gland size (

conclusionsIn patients surgically treated for HPT, PA is associated with some distinctive clinicopathologic features. These findings could be helpful to pathologists and clinicians for appropriate clinicopathologic management.
