Large Water-Clear-Cell Parathyroid Adenoma: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 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
Water-clear-cell parathyroid adenomas are extremely rare tumors characterized by cells that contain clear, foamy cytoplasm. Here we report a case of a large water-clear-cell parathyroid adenoma in a 70-year-old male. The patient was presented to an outside hospital with severe abdominal pain and supporting CT imaging confirming a small bowel obstruction. Initial laboratory studies revealed hypercalcemia and elevated parathyroid hormone levels. Subsequent ultrasound imaging revealed a 2.7 × 2.1 cm neck mass suspicious for a parathyroid adenoma. A parathyroidectomy was performed, and microscopic evaluation revealed an expansile proliferation of cells with characteristic water-clear cell features. Although rare, water-clear-cell parathyroid adenomas are clinically indistinguishable from more common subtypes and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of an anterior neck mass.
