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

Unlike hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism is rarely encountered in clinical practice. Usually, it results from surgical resection, an autoimmune phenomenon, or an infiltrative process. Under certain circumstances, one may encounter a genetic etiology of hypoparathyroidism, often combined with myriad other syndromic manifestations. We report a case of a young female with congenital deafness and subacute visual loss. Hypocalcemia and primary hypoparathyroidism were subsequently discovered, and the cause of the vision loss was diagnosed as idiopathic intracranial hypertension, likely secondary to severe primary hypoparathyroidism. The patient was also found to have small bilateral kidneys, with tubular loss of magnesium and calcium, yet with a normal glomerular filtration rate. The constellation of congenital deafness, hypoparathyroidism, and renal dysfunction suggests Barakat syndrome, one of the less common causes of syndromic primary hypoparathyroidism.
