PTH levels, sleep quality, and cognitive function in primary hyperparathyroidism.

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
backgroundCognitive function in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) may be affected and be identified to have been linked to the level of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Previous studies have suggested that patients with PHPT present poor sleep quality, which might interact with cognitive decline. The purpose of this study was to determine whether sleep quality mediates the association between PTH level and cognitive function and investigate whether surgery improves sleep quality and cognition in PHPT patients.
methodsBetween June 2019 and August 2022, we recruited 146 patients diagnosed with PHPT (n = 146). We collected clinical data from medical records and evaluated sleep quality and cognition preoperatively and 2 months postoperatively by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Min-Mental State Examination. We examined the mediation effects of sleep disturbance and latency on correlations between PTH level and cognitive impairment by using the Bootstrap method.
resultsThe sleep quality and cognitive function were correlated with PTH level before surgery. Sleep latency or sleep disturbance exhibited a partial mediating effect on the association between PTH level and MMSE scores in PHPT patients (p < 0.05). In PHPT patients, there was a significant decline in PTH levels and an improvement in cognitive function post-surgery compared to pre-surgery, but no significant differences in sleep quality.
conclusionSleep disturbance and sleep latency may mediate the association between PTH level and cognitive impairment in PHPT before surgery. The surgery could reduce PTH levels and improve cognition, but might not improve sleep quality in PHPT patients.
