Rhabdomyolysis. The role of diagnostic and prognostic factors.
Article in Muscles, ligaments and tendons journal, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 60 papers.
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
Rhabdomyolysis, literally meaning the breakdown of muscle tissue, is a common syndrome with many causes, acquired ones such as exertion, trauma, infections, temperature extremes, drugs, toxins, electrolyte and endocrine abnormalities, and congenital ones such as myopathies and connective tissue disorders. All results in a common pathophysiologic pathway which ends with the dispersing of muscle tissue content into the circulation. Rhabdomyolysis has characteristic clinical, laboratory and radiologic features, but does require a high index of suspicion so that the diagnosis would not be missed. The sensitivity and specificity of the various characteristics, as well as clinical guidelines, are discussed in this paper. The syndrome may present with several complications, e.g. arrhythmias, electrolyte abnormalities, acute renal injury, acidosis, volume depletion, compartment syndrome and disseminated intravascular coagulation. The prognosis is highly variable and depends on the underlying etiologies and complications, but is in general considered as good. The milestone of treatment is vigorous fluid resuscitation. Treatment options, in practice and in research, are discussed in the following pages.
