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

backgroundPrimary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disorder that often requires surgical intervention. Preoperative localization of parathyroid lesions is critical for successful surgery. This study compares the diagnostic value of

objectiveThis study aimed to assess the preoperative diagnostic performance of US and

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 75 patients with elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and suspected primary hyperparathyroidism between September 2023 and November 2024. All patients underwent

resultsAmong the 75 patients, 68 were confirmed as PHPT cases, with a total of 74 parathyroid lesions identified. As per patient-based analysis, the diagnostic sensitivities of

conclusionThe dual-isotope SPECT/CT fusion imaging has high diagnostic efficacy for PHPT, which can accurately locate lesions and provide reliable preoperative guidance for surgery. For patients with normal blood calcium but clinical symptoms of PHPT, combining this examination with ultrasound may offer complementary diagnostic value, although this finding requires validation in larger prospective studies. The degree of elevation in serum calcium and PTH levels can predict the volume and metabolic activity of parathyroid adenomas, and relevant biochemical indicators can guide the clinical screening of patients suitable for this examination.
