Infantile Status Epilepticus: A Case of Excessive Water Intake in a Five-Month-Old Girl.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hyponatremia in children, especially in normal infants below the age of six months, is a common cause of the first onset of afebrile convulsions, which can be rarely associated with water intoxication and can lead to a state of encephalopathy and status epilepticus if not diagnosed and managed properly early. Water intoxication is an uncommon but potentially lethal cause of hyponatremia. We report a five-month-old girl who presented to our hospital with status epilepticus, facial puffiness, cyanosis, and severe hyponatremia secondary to water intoxication. Proper investigations and labs were done, and the patient was managed successfully. The aim of reporting this case is to highlight the importance of water intoxication with secondary status epilepticus in infants below six months of age.
