[Acute dehydration in infant].
Article in Journal de pediatrie et de puericulture, 2008. 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
Dehydration in infant under the age of one year, even more under six months old, due to viral diarrhoea in most cases, is particularly risky. Management of dehydration consists in rehydrating and maintaining nutritional needs. The key to choosing the right treatment is to assess dehydration gravity according to weight loss, expressed in percentages of body weight before dehydration, which can be tough or impossible to obtain. So, clinical signs like impairment of general aspect, lengthening of cutaneous recoloration time, persistent cutaneous crease, hollow eyes, mucous membranes dryness or tear lack, with tachycardia, arterial pressure and diuresis, can help in diagnosing dehydration gravity. Treatment is based on correcting extracellular area deficit. In severe cases, it is possible to treat with 20 ml/kg of isotonic cristalloide solute intravenously (dehydration greater than 10%). In all other cases, the technique mostly used is oral rehydration, aimed for correcting hydrical deficit in four hours, which has proved to be efficient, secure and fast. It consists in using rehydration solutes fitting specific criteria. Using them precociously allows most efficient prevention of acute forms.
