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

Electrolyte abnormalities are common after kidney transplantation, but severe hyponatremia as an early sign of occult peritransplant infection is rare. A 68-year-old woman underwent living unrelated kidney transplantation and was discharged on postoperative day 4 with a drain in place. On postoperative day 8, she developed acute kidney injury and profound hyponatremia, with a serum sodium level of 109 mmol/L, despite only mild fatigue and no fever, abdominal pain, allograft tenderness, or wound symptoms. Sodium improved with hypertonic saline, nutritional support, and fluid restriction. On postoperative day 13, she developed fever; computed tomography revealed a 16-cm peritransplant abscess, and drainage grew
