Parathyroid autotransplantation: a phase-based framework for surgical decision-making.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 autotransplantation (PAT), a technique in which parathyroid tissue is excised from its original site and transplanted to an alternative site within the same individual, serves as a pivotal preventive and therapeutic strategy for hypoparathyroidism. Its success is not guaranteed by a single intervention but is determined by a series of crucial decisions that directly influence autograft survival and function, such as the physiological or pathological state of the parathyroid gland, revascularization, and the quality of the surgical process. This review comprehensively delineates the PAT procedure as a continuous, phase-based process, including intraoperative parathyroid identification and evaluation techniques; determining whether to perform PAT and the quantity of autotransplanted tissue; selecting immediate or delayed PAT; processing parathyroid autografts; choosing the PAT site; and methods for evaluating autograft function. By synthesizing the latest evidence for each of these critical phases, this novel, phase-based perspective not only provides a structured framework to guide surgical decision-making but also highlights the research and development potential of PAT, with the ultimate goal of optimizing patient outcomes.
