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

The treatment of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP)-mediated hypercalcemia of malignancy includes treating the malignancy, intravenous fluids, and anti-resorptive therapies such as zoledronic acid or denosumab. PTHrP-mediated hypercalcemia has been reported in benign conditions such as systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) and sarcoidosis and appears to be responsive to glucocorticoids. We report a case of PTHrP-induced hypercalcemia due to a malignancy-low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma-that responded to glucocorticoid treatment. This is the first report of glucocorticoids controlling PTHrP-mediated hypercalcemia of malignancy. Immunohistochemistry of the surgical pathology localized PTHrP staining to the vascular endothelial cells within the tumor. Further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism of glucocorticoid action in the treatment of PTHrP-mediated hypercalcemia of malignancy.
