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
Background: The impact of parathyroid gland autotransplantation on permanent hypoparathyroidism remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to ascertain how selective autotransplantation of parathyroid glands affects the occurrence of permanent hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy with central neck dissection (CND). Method: A retrospective cohort study encompassed consecutive patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma who underwent primary total thyroidectomy plus CND from January 2008 to December 2010 and January 2012 to December 2019. Patients were categorized into two groups (0 and ≥1 parathyroid glands autotransplanted, respectively). Result: The autotransplantation group comprised 501 patients, while the non-autotransplantation group comprised 652 patients. The autotransplantation group showed significantly lower permanent hypoparathyroidism than the non-autotransplantation group [1.2% (6 of 501) vs. 4.4% (29 of 652), Conclusion: Selective parathyroid autotransplantation is associated with a lower risk of permanent postoperative hypoparathyroidism. Autotransplantation is recommended for parathyroid glands that are devascularized or challenging to preserve in their original location.
