Multiple Bone Cysts Caused by Hyperparathyroidism: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cancer diagnosis & prognosis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Brown tumor, a skeletal complication of severe hyperparathyroidism, comprises reparative granulation tissue and proliferating fibrous tissue with hemosiderin deposition. Multiple brown tumors are extremely rare complications of primary hyperparathyroidism. Case Report: A 41-year-old woman presented with pain in the left knee. Radiography showed multiple cystic lesions in both femurs and the left proximal tibia, and additional radiography showed multiple cystic lesions in the left humerus and ulna. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple cystic lesions in the bilateral femurs, left proximal tibia, and ilium. Laboratory tests revealed hypercalcemia (albumin-corrected calcium level, 13.9 mg/dl), hypophosphatemia (phosphate level, 1.6 mg/dl), elevated level of alkaline phosphatase level (614 U/l), and markedly elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) level (1,070 pg/ml; normal range=10-65 ng/l). Conclusion: This report emphasizes the importance of considering hyperparathy-roidism as a differential diagnosis for patients with multiple bone lesions.
