Hypercalcemia in metastatic parathyroid carcinoma followed by hypocalcemia after resection: A case report.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with hypercalcaemia 13 years ago. He was diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism associated with a parathyroid tumour and surgery was performed. Postoperatively, his serum calcium levels, which had once normalized, rose again. Medical treatment for hypercalcaemia failed to control the condition. A chest computed tomography showed multiple pulmonary nodules which were diagnosed as pulmonary metastases of parathyroid carcinoma. The tumour was considered to be the cause of the hypercalcaemia and volume reduction surgery was performed. Immediately after surgery, the patient presented with hypocalcaemia and required calcium correction with Calcium Gluconate Hydrate. Since then, the serum calcium level has stabilized and the patient has progressed without medical treatment. Parathyroid carcinoma is rare. This is a valuable case in which the serum calcium level was controlled by surgery. The patient also developed post-operative hypocalcaemia, which should be reported.
