Discovery of primary hyperparathyroidism following an endoscopic resection of the prostate: case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Urological complaints related to primary hyperparathyroidism are frequently caused by the formation of urolithiasis. We report another rare clinical manifestation of primary hyperparathyroidism associated with urological symptoms. A 68-year-old man presented with dysuria related to benign prostatic hyperplasia. After undergoing endoscopic resection of the prostate, the patient's urinary complaints persisted for several months thereafter. Urinary ultrasound revealed numerous calcifications on the prostatic resection area, requiring a cystoscopy for excision and analysis of the calcifications. This was followed by an endocrine evaluation that revealed a primary hyperparathyroidism due to a single parathyroid adenoma, which was responsible for the prostatic calcifications and the patient's atypical symptomatology. The clinical evolution was favorable after parathyroidectomy. Symptomatic prostatic calcifications, due to primary hyperparathyroidism, on an area of the endoscopic prostate resection are uncommon. The only treatment is endocrine surgery.
