Transient Left Bundle Branch Block in the Setting of Hyperkalemia.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening condition that can lead to sudden cardiac death. We report a case of transient left bundle branch block (LBBB) pattern on an electrocardiogram (EKG) secondary to hyperkalemia in a patient with a history of end-stage renal disease. A 48-year-old female presented to the emergency department (ED) with chief complaints of weakness and shortness of breath after a missed hemodialysis session. A 12-lead EKG in the ED showed the LBBB pattern with left axis deviation, prolonged PR interval, and peaked T-waves in the precordial leads. The initial serum potassium level was 8.5 mEq/L. EKG changes resolved after correcting the serum potassium level.
