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

Hypomagnesemia is a well-known complication of long-term proton pump inhibitor usage; the stronger acid-suppressive effect of potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) may increase the risk of hypomagnesemia to a similar or greater extent. However, reports of P-CAB-associated hypomagnesemia are scarce. A 78-year-old Japanese man with a history of type 2 diabetes and myocardial infarction, who was receiving low-dose aspirin and long-term vonoprazan, presented with epigastric discomfort. Laboratory testing revealed significant hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia, and low intact parathyroid hormone levels, which were consistent with functional hypoparathyroidism. Electrocardiogram (ECG) showed QTc prolongation and frequent premature ventricular contractions. Urinary magnesium excretion was low, suggesting impaired intestinal magnesium absorption rather than renal loss. Vonoprazan was discontinued, and magnesium and calcium supplementation was initiated. Electrolyte abnormalities normalized by day 3, and ECG changes subsequently resolved. No recurrence occurred after switching to an H
