The Use of Amiloride and Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in Cisplatin-Induced Hypomagnesemia: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cisplatin, a chemotherapy agent widely used since its FDA approval in 1978 for testicular cancer, is associated with nephrotoxicity and hypomagnesemia. Magnesium supplementation is not only a treatment for hypomagnesemia but also a well-established agent in preventing cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity (CIN). Considering the challenges associated with intravenous magnesium use and even with the supplementation of oral forms, there is a need for drugs that effectively reduce urinary magnesium excretion. Amiloride and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors) have emerged as potential candidates. Amiloride is a well-known potassium-sparing diuretic that also has a hypomagnesemia effect seen in preclinical data. SGLT2 inhibitors are a drug class initially used in diabetes that was also observed to have positive effects on cardiovascular mortality, diabetic kidney disease, and hypomagnesemia. SGLT2 inhibitors were found to reduce hypomagnesemia in a meta-analysis study of 18 trials. However, these trials were not specifically designed for the evaluation of hypomagnesemia, and their current use in hypomagnesemia is considered off-label.
