Hypoparathyroidism Associated with Benign Thyroid Nodules in DiGeorge-like Syndrome: A Rare Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Endocrine, metabolic & immune disorders drug targets, 2024. 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
backgroundDiGeorge-like syndrome (DGLS) is a rare genetic disorder due to the presence of the same classical clinical manifestations of DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) without its typical deletion. In the DGLS phenotype, hypoparathyroidism seldom occurs and is considered rare. In DGS, hypocalcemia affects up to 70% of patients, and a considerable share often has asymptomatic thyroid abnormalities. CASE PRESENTATION: In this study, we describe an unusual case of a 16-year-old patient with DGLS due to a duplication of 365 kb in the 20p11.22 region, affected by hypoparathyroidism associated with thyroid nodule. The intraoperative parathyroid evaluation ruled out agenesis as a cause of hypoparathyroidism. In addition, we carried out a thorough literature review from 2010 to 2023 of DGLS cases using specific keywords, such as "22q11.2 deletion syndrome", "Di- George-like Syndrome", "hypoparathyroidism", "thyroid", and "children", analyzing 119 patients with DGLS.
conclusionInterestingly enough, the present case represents, to our knowledge, the first report of a patient with DGLS associated with hypoparathyroidism and the presence of thyroid nodules where an intraoperative observation reported a non-functional parathyroid gland.
