Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2A in Denmark 1930–2021: A Nationwide Population-Based Retrospective Study
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Studies of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN 2A) shows divergence in frequency, disease definition, reporting of clinical characteristics and traces of selection bias. This is a nationwide population-based retrospective study of PHPT in MEN 2A, suggesting a representative frequency, with complete reporting and a strict PHPT definition. The Danish MEN 2A cohort 1930-2021 was used. Of 204 MEN 2A cases, 16 had PHPT, resulting in a frequency of 8% (CI, 5-12). Age-related penetrance at 50 years was 8% (CI, 4-15). PHPT was seen in the American Thyroid Association moderate (ATA-MOD) and high (ATA-H) risk groups in 62% and 38% of carriers, respectively. Median age at PHPT diagnosis was 45 years (range, 21-79). A total of 75% were asymptomatic and 25% were symptomatic. Thirteen underwent parathyroid surgery, resulting in a cure of 69%, persistence in 8% and recurrence in 23%. In this first study with a clear PHPT definition and no selection bias, we found a lower frequency of PHPT and age-related penetrance, but a higher age at PHPT diagnosis than often cited. This might be affected by the Danish
