A preoperative parathyroid scan is important for the total removal of the transplanted parathyroid tissue in recurrent secondary hyperthyroidism: A case report and literature review.
Review in Medicine, 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
rationaleSecondary hyperparathyroidism was one of mineral and bone disorders owing to chronic kidney disease. Patients who suffer from secondary hyperparathyroidism would receive medical treatment or parathyroidectomy with or without autotransplantation (AT). However, some patients receiving parathyroidectomy with AT have recurrent hyperparathyroidism, which impacts their lives. Patients with recurrent hyperparathyroidism may present persistent hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, which would cause cardiovascular disease, like atherosclerosis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 63-year-old female of Asian descent with chronic kidney disease who suffered from recurrent hyperparathyroidism for twice. The patient underwent parathyroidectomy with AT in the left thigh when secondary hyperparathyroidism happened. After 3 months, recurrent hyperparathyroidism happened. DIAGNOSIS: The patient was diagnosed with recurrent hyperparathyroidism due to chronic kidney disease with hyperparathyroidism status post parathyroidectomy with AT in the left thigh. Our patient also suffered from mineral and bone disorder.
interventionTwo parathyroid adenoma in the left thigh were found. However, one of them was too small to found in the operation. Therefore, autograftectomy of the large one was performed. However, hyperparathyroidism happened again. This time, the autograftectomy was performed under dual phase Tc-99m MIBI (99m Tc-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile) parathyroid scintigraphy and it succeeded. OUTCOMES: After secondary autograftectomy, the value of intact parathyroid hormone was surveyed immediately and dropped by two-third followed by gradual reduction in the following weeks. The calcemia and phosphatemia were back to normal gradually. LESSONS: In our case, importance of scintigraphy in the parathyroidectomy was confirmed.
