Extensive Myocardial Calcifications Associated With Recent-Onset Renal Failure and Primary Hyperparathyroidism.
Article in JACC. Case reports, 2025. 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
backgroundCardiac calcifications are a rare consequence of end-stage renal failure and hyperparathyroidism. CASE SUMMARY: A 35-year-old man with no prior medical history was admitted to our institution with sudden blindness in his right eye and severe renal failure. Ophthalmologic evaluation revealed central retinal artery occlusion with arterial calcifications. End-stage chronic renal failure was diagnosed. A positron emission tomography-computed tomography (CT) and a Tc-99m multiplex ion beam imaging scintigraphy confirmed hyperparathyroidism. Transthoracic echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and cardiac CT identified significant myocardial calcifications and restrictive cardiomyopathy caused by hyperparathyroidism and renal failure. Management included dialysis and parathyroidectomy. DISCUSSION: This is the first human report to assess cardiac calcifications associated with hyperparathyroidism and end-stage renal failure with a strong correlation between transthoracic echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and cardiac CT. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Calcium-phosphorus metabolic disorders and renal failure contribute to multiple systemic complications, including vascular disease, cardiomyopathy, and atrial fibrillation.
