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

Hyponatremia, a serum sodium level of <135 mEq/L, is the most common electrolyte abnormality occurring in 5%-35% of hospitalized patients. It is a predictor of increased morbidity and mortality. Diuretics, psychotropic, and antiepileptic drugs are commonly implicated in drug-induced hyponatremia. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and spironolactone are two commonly prescribed drugs; unfortunately, most providers are unfamiliar with these two drugs causing hyponatremia. Simultaneous use of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and spironolactone can cause serious drug interactions that increase the risk of hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, and overall mortality. Despite recommendations to avoid using these two drugs concurrently, many healthcare providers continue to prescribe them together. We report a case of an elderly female with severe hyponatremia caused by trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole superimposed on a chronic but stable mild hyponatremia.
