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

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor have become widely used in patients with diabetes, heart failure, and kidney disease to improve clinical outcomes and diminish hospitalizations. They have also been associated with increased serum magnesium levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. The use of SGLT2 inhibitors resulted in improved magnesium homeostasis in a series of patients with refractory hypomagnesemia with urinary magnesium wasting. However, the role of SLGT2 inhibitors in patients with hypomagnesemia without urinary magnesium wasting remains unexplored. We report 2 cases with refractory hypomagnesemia without significant urinary magnesium wasting and dramatically improved serum magnesium levels after the initiation of SGLT2 inhibitors. Case 1 achieved independence from weekly intravenous magnesium infusions and reached sustainably greater serum magnesium levels with decreased oral magnesium supplementation and increased urinary fractional excretion of magnesium. Case 2 demonstrated improved serum magnesium levels with reduced oral magnesium supplementation without significant reduction in urinary fractional excretion of magnesium. These findings not only expand the use of SGLT2 inhibitors but also open the door for further studies to better understand the pathophysiology of how magnesium homeostasis is altered with inhibition of SGLT2.
