A Case of TKA Failure in Patient with Primary Hyperparathyroidism.
Article in Orthopaedic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPrimary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an endocrine disorder with high serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. Excessive secretion of PTH can cause bone loss and may have potential damage to implant fixation after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, there is currently no research or literature reporting prosthesis loosening after TKA associated with PHPT. CASE PRESENTATION: This case report describes a TKA failure of tibial prothesis loosening associated with PHPT. The patient faced aggravated pain and difficulty in walking 6 months after the primary TKA. Further examinations showed high serum calcium and PTH levels indicating the presence of PHPT. After the surgery of parathyroidectomy, the patient received revision TKA with 3D-printed metaphyseal cone. Knee symptoms and function were finally improved.
conclusionPHPT is a risk factor for prosthesis loosening after TKA. Preoperative screening test of serum calcium and PTH levels is important to diagnose PHPT. For patients with PHPT undergoing TKA, preoperative endocrinotherapy and parathyroidectomy are recommended to improve the survival of prosthesis.
