Localization of Ectopic Mediastinal Parathyroid Adenomas Using Indigo Carmine Injection for Surgical Management: A Preliminary Report.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
An ectopic parathyroid adenoma (EPA) is a rare entity. The aim of this study was to report our experience in the preoperative localization and surgical management of EPAs. This was a multicenter retrospective study involving patients diagnosed with an EPA (three males and seven females) from January 2005 to November 2021. The clinical features, preoperative management, and surgical procedures were analyzed. A cervical neck ultrasound was performed in all patients and showed a focus in eight patients. Cervicothoracic enhanced computed tomography was performed in all patients and showed a focus in nine patients. The
