Role of intraoperative parathyroid hormone in guiding parathyroidectomy.
Article in Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThe aim of the study was to determine the sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of intra-operative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) in patients undergoing surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism based on Miami criteria.
methodsA total of 107 medical records of patients who underwent surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism were reviewed from August 2018 to December 2021. Patients that underwent surgery for recurrent or persistent pHPT were excluded from the study and the following data was analysed: sex, age, pre-operative PTH and 10 minutes post excision PTH levels, type of surgery and histopathological features.
resultsThere was a greater number of women (79.5%) in the study with a mean age of 65.14 years. The mean preoperative PTH were 17.7 pmol/L while the mean intra-operative PTH following excision was 6.5 pmol/L. The sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of intra-operative PTH were 86.14%, 100% and 86.9%, respectively.
conclusionIntra-operative PTH is a valuable investigation that can guide successful parathyroidectomy.
