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

Bartter's syndrome (BS) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by salt-wasting alkalosis and hypokalemia. Perioperative management of BS patients remains limited, with most of them undergoing elective surgery. We presented a case report about a 12-year-old BS child who underwent an emergent gastroscopy due to acute gastrointestinal bleeding. The patient was presented to the operation room with hypokalemia, hyponatremia, severe anaemia, and hemorrhagic shock. The gastroscopy was performed under general anesthesia, and the patient was hemodynamically stable throughout the whole process. Finally, the patient was discharged with no complications. The perioperative challenges of BS patients mainly come from the dramatic metabolic disturbances. The perception of the pathophysiology of BS and the patient-based status may help to recognize risks and thus minimize the morbidity and improve outcome, even in an emergent situation.
