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

Hypernatremia (serum sodium>160 meq/L) present with diverse neurological manifestations, ranging from flaccid paralysis to impaired cognition, encephalopathy, and even deep coma. Osmotic demyelination refers to changes in brain cells because of an acute change in plasma osmolality. It is further divided into two types, i.e., central pontine myelinolysis (CPM) and extrapontine myelinolysis (EPM). Patients with EPM, besides spasticity, may also present with other movement disorders such as catatonia, parkinsonism, and dystonia. We present a case of a postpartum woman bought to the emergency department by her relatives in an unconscious state. In view of poor sensorium (Glasgow coma scale < 7), she was intubated and received mechanical ventilatory support. On admission, computed tomography ofthebrain was normal, and the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU) for further management. The preliminary work-up in the ICU showed hypernatremia (serum sodium of 182 mEq/L) with hyper-osmolality (359 mOsm/kgH
