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

We report a 35-year-old woman at 31 weeks and 5 days' gestation with severe pre-eclampsia and acute kidney injury who developed symptomatic hypermagnesemia (4.49 mmol/L) and 2:1 second-degree atrioventricular block after receiving a standard Pritchard magnesium sulfate regimen. Magnesium sulfate was discontinued, intravenous calcium gluconate was administered, and emergency cesarean delivery was performed. The atrioventricular block resolved completely, and the mother recovered well. This case highlights a rare but reversible manifestation of magnesium toxicity and the importance of early recognition in patients with deteriorating renal function.
