Meta-analysis of factors affecting hyponatremia after spinal cord injury.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Objective: To systematically evaluate the risk factors for hyponatremia in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) through a meta-analysis, and to provide evidence-based guidance for early identification of high-risk populations and the development of preventive strategies in clinical practice. Methods: Electronic databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, VIP Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), PubMed, and Web of Science were searched from their inception to November 10, 2024. Literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment were independently conducted by two researchers. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to assess the methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. Results: A total of 14 studies involving 2,729 patients with SCI were included, among whom 1,160 patients developed hyponatremia and 1,569 had normal serum sodium levels. The NOS scores of the included studies ranged from 7 to 8, indicating generally high methodological quality. Meta-analysis results showed that high-level spinal cord injury (OR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.04-2.81), complete spinal cord injury (OR = 4.96, 95% CI: 3.75-6.57), concomitant traumatic brain injury (OR = 2.70, 95% CI: 1.79-4.07), and the use of assisted ventilation (OR = 3.28, 95% CI: 1.52-7.09) were significant risk factors for hyponatremia in patients with SCI ( Conclusion: Current evidence indicates that high-level spinal cord injury (≤C4), complete spinal cord injury, concomitant craniocerebral injury, and the use of assisted ventilation are significant risk factors for hyponatremia in patients with SCI. Enhanced monitoring and management of these high-risk populations are recommended to facilitate early identification and timely intervention for hyponatremia. Systematic review registration: The systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (Unique Identifier: CRDCRD42024585004).
