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

Prevention of recurrent eclamptic seizures requires the administration of magnesium sulfate. However, to our knowledge, there are no reports of cases in which the ionized magnesium concentration has been monitored during magnesium sulfate administration to prevent eclampsia. We describe a case in which monitoring of ionized magnesium permitted the use of magnesium sulfate to prevent a third eclamptic seizure. A 31-year-old primigravida with severe preeclampsia and eclampsia underwent emergency cesarean delivery. The patient had a recurrence of seizures intraoperatively. Postoperatively, she was managed with continuous magnesium sulfate infusion under ionized magnesium monitoring at the bedside using a blood gas analyzer in the intensive care unit. This approach might have helped prevent further seizures and complications associated with the administration of magnesium sulfate, such as hypermagnesemia. This case indicates that in the use of magnesium sulfate for patients with preeclampsia, ionized magnesium measurement was used for the rapid determination of magnesium levels.
