A Case of Primary Hyperparathyroidism With a Hypercalcemic Crisis Resulting in Distinct Bone Mineral Redistribution.
Article in Cureus, 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
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is generally detected early, but this case involves a rare hypercalcemic crisis associated with a parathyroid adenoma. A 66-year-old man presented with extreme fatigue and loss of appetite. Serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were elevated to 22.5 mg/dL and 3100 pg/mL, respectively. After the initial management of hypercalcemia, parathyroidectomy confirmed a benign adenoma. This case demonstrates a notable redistribution of bone minerals, with a significant decrease in cortical bone density but preservation, and even enhancement, of trabecular bone density. This redistribution highlights the complex dual action of PTH on bone metabolism, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring in severe PHPT cases.
