Severe Refractory Hypocalcemia Caused by Denosumab.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Denosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand, an essential cytokine factor in bone resorption, which reduces bone resorption and has been shown to decrease the incidence of skeletal-related events in patients with malignancy and bone metastasis. Severe hypocalcemia is a rare and life-threatening adverse effect of denosumab therapy. Here, we discuss the case of a patient with stage 4 estrogen receptor-positive, progesterone receptor-negative, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative breast cancer who was on treatment with denosumab for bony metastases and presented with severe refractory hypocalcemia.
