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

Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte imbalance observed in hospitalized as well as outdoor patients. Antidepressants such as selective serotonin receptor inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants are reported among the most common drugs causing hyponatremia, especially in the elderly and in patients with known risk factors for hyponatremia. However, there have been only a few case reports of hyponatremia associated with antidepressants such as mirtazapine and flupentixol/melitracen. The exact mechanism of hyponatremia with the use of antidepressants is not known; however, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is presumed to be the reason. Here, we report two cases of antidepressant drug-induced hyponatremia in two postmenopausal females with no other risk factor for hyponatremia: one associated with mirtazapine and the other with flupentixol/melitracen.
