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

Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder among hospitalized patients and it is sometimes considered as a poor outcome predictor. Its correction is thus indicated, even in asymptomatic patients. The conventional treatment consists of fluid restriction in presence of euvolemia or hypervolemia; loop diuretics are used in some hypervolemic conditions such as cardiac heart failure, liver cirrhosis and nephrotic syndrome, while intravenous isotonic or hypertonic solutions are administered in hypovolemic conditions. The utilization of demeclocycline and urea is not indicated in pediatric ages due to lack of data on their toxicity and poor tolerance. Recently, a new therapeutic option has been developed, a class of non-peptide arginine vasopressin receptor antagonists called vaptans. Tolvaptan is the only such agent approved in Europe for the treatment of hyponatremia caused by syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) in adults. In USA, tolvaptan and conivaptan have been approved for treatment of euvolemic and hypervolemic hyponatremia. Few data are so far available in paediatric patients, since only one trial has been registered in Europe which includes children and adolescents, but this trial is still ongoing. Here, we report three children with chronic hyponatremia due to SIADH in which tolvaptan has been used successfully.
