Cardiac Arrest Following GoLytely Consumption: A Potential Trigger for Hypovolemic Shock.
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
This case report presents a rare but severe complication of polyethylene glycol (PEG) used for colonoscopic bowel preparation. A 71-year-old male developed cardiac arrest secondary to hypovolemic shock following consumption of GoLytely. Despite being hemodynamically stable prior to ingestion, the patient experienced extreme weakness, dizziness, and orthostatic hypotension post-consumption. Evaluation ruled out other causes of arrest. While serious complications from PEG are rare, this case underscores the importance of vigilance. Further investigation is warranted to elucidate the relationship between PEG use and cardiac events and to identify potential risk factors for adverse outcomes associated with bowel preparation regimens.
