Effect of inhaled salbutamol on whole-blood potassium concentrations in healthy cats.
Article in Journal of feline medicine and surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
ObjectivesThis study aimed to determine the effect of inhaled salbutamol on blood potassium concentrations in normokalemic cats, evaluate whether effects are dose dependent and assess whether it affects heart rate and blood glucose concentrations.MethodsThe study was a prospective, open-label, two-way crossover trial. A total of 11 healthy cats were randomly assigned to two groups: one received a low dose of 100 µg salbutamol (Low group) and the other a high dose of 200 µg (High group). After a washout period of 15-21 days, the Low group received the high dose and the High group received the low dose. Blood potassium and glucose concentrations and heart rates were measured at baseline and 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 mins after salbutamol administration.ResultsPotassium concentrations significantly decreased over time after the administration of salbutamol in both groups (
