Hypokalemic Paralysis Revealing Primary Sjogren's Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in JNMA; journal of the Nepal Medical Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sjogren's syndrome is a rare chronic autoimmune disease characterised by dry eyes and dry mouth due to autoimmune destruction of the lacrimal and salivary glands, which can occur concurrently with other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or thyroiditis. It can lead to renal complications such as interstitial nephritis and glomerulonephritis, with distal/ type 1 renal tubular acidosis which may result in life-threatening electrolyte imbalance. We present a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with complaints of multiple episodes of muscle weakness. Type 1 renal tubular acidosis was discovered to be the cause of her symptoms which lead to the subsequent diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome. This is rare presentation of Sjogren's syndrome, and it poses a challenge to diagnosis. Early detection and diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome might be difficult due to existing diagnostic criteria, which contributes to a higher likelihood of missed diagnosis. Keywords: case reports; hypokalemia; renal tubular acidosis; Sjogren's syndrome.
