Hyperosmolar Treatment for Patients at Risk for Increased Intracranial Pressure: A Single-Center Cohort Study.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Treatment with osmoactive agents such as mannitol or hypertonic saline (HTS) solutions is widely used to manage or prevent the increase of intracranial pressure (ICP) in central nervous system (CNS) disorders. We sought to evaluate the variability and mean plasma concentrations of the water and electrolyte balance parameters in critically ill patients treated with osmotic therapy and their influence on mortality. This cohort study covered patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU) from January 2017 to June 2019 with presumed increased ICP or considered to be at risk of it, treated with 15% mannitol (G1, n = 27), a combination of 15% mannitol and 10% hypertonic saline (HTS) (G2, n = 33) or 10% HTS only (G3, n = 13). Coefficients of variation (Cv) and arithmetic means (mean) were calculated for the parameters reflecting the water and electrolyte balance, i.e., sodium (NaCv/NaMean), chloride (ClCv/ClMean) and osmolality (mOsmCv/mOsmMean). In-hospital mortality was also analyzed. The study group comprised 73 individuals (36 men, 49%). Mortality was 67% (n = 49). Median NaCv (G1:
