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

purpose of reviewThe overactive renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important part in many pathologic conditions including hypertension, heart failure, and renal disease. Hyperkalemia, a potentially life-threatening side effect of RAAS inhibitors, limits their use. The recent introduction of new hyperkalemia treatments provides opportunities to take full benefit of RAAS inhibitors. RECENT

findingsOptimizing RAAS inhibition is an important therapeutic goal, particularly in chronic kidney disease. Different strategies have been investigated to achieve this goal, including inhibiting the pathway at multiple steps and using maximum or even supramaximal doses. Hyperkalemia is one of the most significant barriers to all of the strategies mentioned above. Up until the recent past, there have been limited therapeutic options available for the prevention and treatment of hyperkalemia in the long term. New promising agents to treat hyperkalemia in outpatient settings, namely, patiromer and sodium zirconium, may provide a solution. This article will review the benefits and risks of RAAS inhibitors, strategies to optimize their use, and the new hyperkalemia treatments that can lower the risk associated with RAAS inhibiting therapies.
