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

A reduced sodium: potassium ratio is an uncommon finding in cats, and is typically associated with conditions such as hypoadrenocorticism, severe renal and cardiovascular diseases, cavitary effusion and certain non-parasitic gastrointestinal diseases. This report describes a case of a 1-year-old female Maine Coon cat showing severe hyperkalaemia and hyponatraemia, associated with gastrointestinal signs and Tritrichomonas foetus infection. Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) stimulation testing excluded hypoadrenocorticism. Supportive care combined with antiprotozoal treatment using ronidazole led to long-term clinical resolution and normalisation of the electrolyte abnormalities.
