Comparison of severe hyponatremia in patients with and without psychiatric diseases: A single-center retrospective study.
Article in PCN reports : psychiatry and clinical neurosciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Aims: Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte disorder. The severe hyponatremia has a mortality rate of 4%-40%. Psychiatric patients are likely to develop the condition because of polydipsia or the adverse effects of antipsychotics. We investigated the characteristics of patients with and without psychiatric diseases who developed severe hyponatremia. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively investigated cases admitted to our hospital (all departments) between October 2012 and November 2015 with a serum sodium concentration of ≤125 mmol/l on admission. We compared patient characteristics, etiology, and clinical course between psychiatric and nonpsychiatric patients. Results: In total, 123 cases (62 female) were analyzed. Psychiatric disorders were present in 69 cases (56%), including schizophrenia ( Conclusions: Our study found differences in the clinical picture between psychiatric and nonpsychiatric patients with severe hyponatremia. Clinicians need to monitor serum sodium because the symptoms of hyponatremia can mimic those of psychiatric diseases.
