Hyponatremia after pediatric surgery: Randomized trial of fluid composition on antidiuretic hormone response.
Trial report in Pediatric research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundWe examined the underlying mechanisms of whether hyponatremia could be induced by hypotonic solution administration after the postoperative invasive phase (POIP).
methodsWe included patients who had undergone surgery with expected oral feeding resumption after postoperative day (POD) 3. In this open-label, randomized controlled trial, 100 patients were assigned to three groups by sodium concentrations ([Na]) used for maintenance infusions: 136 mEq/L (ISO) (n = 34), 68 mEq/L (HYPO) (n = 33), and 34 mEq/L (exHYPO) (n = 33). Potassium (20 mEq/L) and glucose (60 g/L) were added to each infusion. Ringer's solution was used in all groups for the first 12 h postoperatively, then switched to a maintenance solution. Blood samples were drawn and evaluated on POD 3.
resultsHyponatremia frequencies on POD 3 were 3.6, 18, and 39% in the ISO, HYPO, and exHYPO groups, respectively, with a significant difference between the ISO and exHYPO groups. Additionally, 90% of the patients still had excessive antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion on POD 3. There were no remarkable adverse events.
conclusionThe persistence of surgical stress-induced ADH secretion until POD 3 suggested that hyponatremia was induced by exHYPO administration. However, using Ringer's solution during the POIP might prevent hyponatremia in HYPO patients. REGISTRATION NUMBER: UMIN000029057 ( https://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index.htm ). DATE OF FIRST REGISTRATION: 01/11/2017 IMPACT: After the postoperative invasive phase, non-osmotic antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion due to surgical stress persisted, resulting in an excess ADH state for at least 3 postoperative days (PODs). Administration of extremely hypotonic electrolyte infusions under such circumstances might induce hyponatremia. Adequate extracellular fluid administration during the invasive phase after major pediatric laparoscopic surgery did not cause further increases in ADH secretion or hyponatremia, even for HYPO maintenance fluid.
