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

BRASH syndrome is a relatively novel clinical entity with profound bradycardia secondary to simultaneous metabolic derangement and drug toxicity. The syndrome is a clinical pentad of bradycardia, acute kidney injury, use of atrioventricular nodal blocking agents, shock, and hyperkalemia. It is widely underrecognized with selectively few reports, mainly in the elderly population. We present a 43-year-old woman on two oral atrioventricular blocking agents who presented with 1 week of increasing lethargy with rapid deterioration into cardiac arrest with subsequent shock postresuscitation. She was found to have hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis, and acute kidney injury on arrival. Her initial electrocardiogram was remarkable for sinus arrest and junctional bradycardia. She was treated with a temporary pacemaker, renal replacement therapy, and potassium-lowering agents, with subsequent improvement resulting in conversion to normal sinus rhythm.
