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

Hypoalimentation is an important cause of hypernatremic dehydration in neonates; however, extreme values of plasma sodium make it necessary to investigate the differential diagnosis. We report the case of a 20-day-old newborn who was admitted with severe hypernatremic dehydration, with plasma sodium of 213 mEq/L and oliguric acute renal failure. The patient was treated with intravenous fluids for correction of dehydration and peritoneal dialysis for adequate sodium correction. During the etiological study, a 10-fold increase in the concentration of sodium in breast milk was detected. Peritoneal dialysis was an effective therapy in the management of the extreme hypernatremia with sodium correction within the recommended rate. At the 1-year follow-up appointment, the child had normal renal function, normal for age psychomotor development, and neurological physical was unremarkable. In conclusion, we report a case of an unusual extreme hypernatremia with discussion of the underlying pathophysiology and, more importantly, the effective treatment with a mixed approach with intravenous fluids and peritoneal dialysis.
