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

Introduction: Hyponatremia is one of the most prevalent water-electrolyte disturbances encountered in clinical practice in pediatrics and can arise from various conditions. However, there are limited reports on hyponatremia in hospitalized infants. The objective of this study was to provide an overview of the incidence, etiologies, and clinical characteristics of hyponatremia in hospitalized babies (from birth to 3 years old) at a tertiary hospital. Method: Computer records of all hospitalized babies (from birth to 3 years old) with hyponatremia were extracted from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University's clinical databases. Results: 801 patients from 39,019 hospital admissions were found to have hyponatremia and the overall prevalence of this condition was 2.05% in babies. Patients with hyponatremia due to aldosterone signaling abnormalities, neurological disorders, and liver diseases exhibited more severe outcomes than those with other etiologies. Conclusions: Various conditions can result in hyponatremia in hospitalized babies. Aldosterone signaling abnormalities were not that uncommon and it could lead to severe hyponatremia in babies.
