Cervical Retrieval of Giant Posterior Mediastinal Parathyroid Adenoma with Bizarre Morphology.

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
Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism and rarely reaches huge sizes. As the gland enlarges it may exhibit atypical morphology and extension to the mediastinum which may complicate the excision of the tumor while preserving the capsular integrity. We present a 35-year-old male patient who was referred to our department with a complaint of severe hypercalcemia. Neck ultrasound and parathyroid scintigraphy revealed an adenoma of 45x25 mm in size in the left parathyroid lobe extending to the retrosternal area. The patient underwent an uneventful parathyroidectomy. The patient remained well with no evidence of biochemical recurrence during the 4-year follow-up. Here, we presented a very original case of one of the largest parathyroid adenomas (8 cm) with atypical configuration (having multiple spicular extensions from the main body) ever reported in the literature which was completely retrieved from the posterior mediastinum via cervical route.
