The cause of severe hypercalcaemia resistant to pamidronate treatment: subcutaneous fat necrosis with no visible skin lesion.
Article in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 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
Subcutaneous fat necrosis (SCFN) is an uncommon cause of neonatal hypercalcaemia. It is usually seen in neonates after a complicated delivery within the first month of life. While uncommon, hypercalcaemia can be fatal. It is characterised by red-purple plaques in fatty points along with firm subcutaneous nodules. Rarely, SCFN may cause severe hypercalcaemia with no visible skin lesion. In this rare case, we report severe infancy hypercalcaemia without characteristic skin lesion on first physical examination, unresponsive to hydration, diuretic, prednisolone and standard dose of pamidronate treatment. As timely diagnosis and treatment are so important, this complication should be kept in mind even in such clinical presentations.
