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
A parathyroid adenoma is defined as a benign tumor in the parathyroid glands. A type of parathyroid adenoma is giant parathyroid adenoma that weighs > 3.5 g and has a size of more than 2 cm. A 37-year-old woman presented with coughs and dyspnea without fever, hemoptysis, and weight loss. Examination of the patient revealed a diffusely enlarged thyroid gland and a positive Pemberton's sign. On the CT scan, the hypodense mass in the superior mediastinum was noted with tracheal compression. The resected mass weighed 15 g, and histopathology indicated a giant parathyroid adenoma (GPA). Giant parathyroid adenoma, as a rare cause of hyperparathyroidism, is diagnosed by imaging and laboratory methods. This case showed that the differential diagnosis of GPA is necessary and should be considered. In addition, the main method of treatment for this disease is surgery and removal of the parathyroid adenoma.
