A report of two cases of parathyroid adenoma with associated chronic lymphocytic parathyroiditis.

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 adenomas with chronic parathyroiditis are challenging to diagnose, as the etiology is unknown and may lie on a spectrum from systemic autoimmune changes to local inflammatory reactions. We aim to present 2 cases of hypercellular parathyroid glands with chronic lymphocytic parathyroiditis and review all other cases reported in the literature. Overall, the clinical course was benign, and surgical intervention was warranted due to the symptomatic nature of the presentations. The surgery was carried out without complications, leading to immediate and significant improvement in the patients' symptoms, normalization of calcium and parathyroid hormone levels, and a mild improvement in glomerular filtration rate. The pathological examination of the surgical specimens revealed hypercellular parathyroid glands with scattered foci of lymphocytic parathyroiditis and lymphocytic aggregates in both cases, alongside germinal center formation in 1 of the cases. This atypical presentation may warrant consideration of an autoimmune evaluation, which could impact post-operative surveillance. Furthermore, patients may benefit from referral to rheumatology and endocrinology, as well as surveillance for other autoimmune endocrinopathies.
