A rare form of hyperthyroidism leading to the diagnosis of acromegaly: A case report.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 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
Acromegaly is a rare disease, usually caused by a pituitary tumor. It typically exhibits slow evolution and can result in numerous complications. In the present case report, the patient presented with hyperthyroidism associated with ophthalmopathy and right nodular goiter. The laboratory tests revealed persistent high levels of phosphorus without an apparent cause. After ruling out common pathologies associated with this finding, a focus was placed on the clinical aspects associated with acromegaly, a rare cause of hyperphosphatemia. Laboratory tests and MRI confirmed the diagnosis. The patient underwent transsphenoidal surgery, but the disease remained active, thus medical treatment was initiated, to a poor initial response. Associated with acromegaly, two distinct thyroid pathologies were diagnosed: Toxic adenoma and Graves' disease. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing a rare endocrine pathology.
