1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Successful surgical treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism requires accurate localization of abnormal parathyroid tissue in terms of location and number. Imaging is important for localizing the parathyroid adenoma, and there has been significant interest in Aim: This study attempted to ascertain the utility of Materials and Methods: Fifty-five patients with biochemical features of primary hyperparathyroidism were enrolled in this study. They underwent neck ultrasonography, Results: A total of 40 lesions were resected in the 33 patients who underwent surgery. A further two lesions were localized in two patients with clinical and biochemical follow-up as the gold standard. Of these 42 lesions, 41 were detected in preoperative imaging and 1 lesion was noted intraoperatively and resected. 41/42 lesions were detected by Conclusion: Detection rates on
