Hyperparathyroidism with acute pancreatitis in elderly patient treated by radiofrequency ablation: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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
Acute pancreatitis as an initial manifestation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has been rarely reported. We report a case of acute pancreatitis from a hyperfunctioning parathyroid tumor in an 87-year-old woman with drowsy state. Laboratory tests showed high lipase, calcium, and intact parathyroid hormone level, and abdominal computed tomography scan revealed acute pancreatitis. Neck ultrasound and scintigraphy gave rise to the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism due to a left parathyroid tumor. The patient underwent radiofrequency ablation of the parathyroid tumor. After the procedure, symptoms subsided and patient was discharged from the hospital 2 weeks later. Six months of treatment, the PTH and calcium serum significantly reduced, her clinical presentation was stable, and there were no signs or symptoms of recurrence pancreatitis.
