Masked Primary Hyperparathyroidism by Empagliflozin Use.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are drugs that regulate blood sugar by decreasing glucose reabsorption from the proximal renal tubules. Primary hyperparathyroidism masked by empagliflozin is very rare and only a few cases are reported in the literature. We report a case of a 57-year-old man with a known history of diabetes on empagliflozin for two years who presented with hypercalcemia and equivocal parathyroid hormone level. Upon cessation of this medication, he had persistent hypercalcemia with a raised parathyroid level, which confirmed the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism. We believe this case is one of the first cases reported in the literature.
