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

objectiveEndosulfan is an organochlorine pesticide with high lipophilic features that makes it a well-absorbed agent and penetrates easily to the site of action. Endosulfan toxicities may result in disastrous complications and have high rates of mortality. Several case reports and some researchs discuss the evidence supporting intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) therapy as a rescue therapy in lipophilic agents' toxicity. CASE REPORT: A 33-years-old healthy woman with  a history of endosulfan ingestion of uncertain quantity in a suicide attempt six hours ago was admitted to our emergency department. Cardiac arrest ensued after one hour of admission. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated in accordance with advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) algorithm for asystole. During resuscitation, 2 mL/kg bolus of 20% intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) was administered for three times at five-minute intervals in addition to ACLS guidance. Spontaneous circulation returned after twenty minutes of resuscitation. No additional antidotal or vasopressor therapies were required during the hospital course of the patient. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case with responded use of ILE treatment for endosulfan toxicity.

conclusionThis case report indicates that ILE treatment should be considered for life-threatening endosulfan intoxications.
