Urine Retention Versus Post-obstructive Diuresis as a Potential Cause of Acute Hyponatremia: A Case Report.

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
Acute urine retention is a common urologic emergency that is frequently seen in the Emergency room (ER). Standard treatment includes placing a urinary catheter or a suprapubic catheter with outpatient urologic follow-up. Urine retention can cause complications, such as hyponatremia and post-obstructive diuresis. It is crucial to diagnose and manage these life-threatening complications appropriately. Herein, we present a case of urine retention-induced hyponatremia. The patient's urine sodium level and osmolality were consistent with the diagnosis of syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). In this patient, sodium autocorrection started after a urinary catheter placement. Hypotonic saline was administered to prevent rapid autocorrection. This type of hyponatremia is unique as autocorrection occurs after catheter placement; however, monitoring is needed to ensure fast autocorrection does not occur. Potential fast autocorrection is concerning in those patients. Treating those patients with hypertonic fluids or normal saline can exacerbate the fast autocorrection and lead to severe complications. Hypotonic fluid administration should be considered when developing rapid autocorrection.
