Acute sodium bicarbonate supplementation reduces the increase in markers of acute kidney injury during physical work in the heat.
Trial report in European journal of applied physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionIn response to metabolic acidosis, compensatory mechanisms are deployed by the kidney to maintain acid-base homeostasis. During physical work in the heat, kidney perfusion is reduced, and the metabolic cost of acid-base balance can make the kidneys more prone to acute kidney injury (AKI). Sodium bicarbonate ingestion (NaHCO PURPOSE: We tested the hypothesis that acute NaHCO
