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

New-onset psychotic symptoms presenting late in life can be caused by various medical and psychiatric conditions. The index of suspicion for an organic cause for psychotic symptoms in an elderly person should be high, and every presenting patient should undergo a detailed history-taking and evaluation before attributing these symptoms to a primary psychiatric condition. Hyperparathyroidism is one condition that can present with psychiatric symptoms such as low mood and anxiety. While psychiatric symptoms are not uncommon in hyperparathyroidism, acute psychosis is rare. This case report highlights the importance of a thorough evaluation of an elderly person presenting with a new onset of psychosis.
