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

A 37-year-old woman who had 8 weeks post partum, breast feeding and on a low carbohydrate and high protein (ketogenic) diet, was admitted to the hospital with acute onset of nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain of 1-day duration. On admission, she was found to have high anion gap metabolic acidosis, elevated beta-hydroxybutyric acid level, normal glucose level and evidence of ketoacidosis. She was treated with lactated Ringer solution, along with dextrose 5% solution with the resolution of symptoms and metabolic derangement.
