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

Key Clinical Message: A timely diagnosis is essential to start appropriate therapy and to reduce risks of life-threatening complications of rhabdomyolysis. Some cases can undergo differential diagnosis with other clinical conditions, e.g., myocardial infarction. Abstract: We present the case of a 65-years-old male who was admitted to the emergency department with a clinical presentation related to myocardial infarction. The patient underwent coronary angioplasty and was then admitted to ICU due to hemodynamical instability, elevated potassium levels, and anuria. Further investigations revealed rhabdomyolysis. The patient received vasopressors, oxygenation support and renal replacement therapy. Outcomes at ICU discharge were favorable. The temporal association between rhabdomyolysis and myocardial infarction, together with an unclear pathophysiological relationship, made differential diagnosis difficult. We discuss this uncertainty in light of published literature.
