1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To describe a rare case of late-onset neonatal hypocalcemia in a very preterm infant caused by maternal adenoma-related hyperparathyroidism (HyperPT) and to discuss diagnostic and therapeutic implications. Study Design: Case report of a preterm infant born at 29 weeks of gestation with very low birth weight. Clinical course, laboratory findings, maternal history, and management were reviewed to identify the etiology and guide treatment. Results: The infant developed transient, asymptomatic hypocalcemia during the neonatal period. Maternal evaluation revealed primary HyperPT due to a parathyroid adenoma as the underlying cause. The newborn responded to calcium supplementation and optimized vitamin D therapy. Conclusion: Maternal HyperPT can cause delayed neonatal hypocalcemia even in preterm infants. Early recognition through coordinated maternal-neonatal evaluation is crucial. Optimal vitamin D administration and close interdisciplinary communication between obstetrics and neonatology are essential for prevention and management.
