The Role of Transocular Ultrasound in the Assessment of Neurotoxicity-Related Encephalopathy in Mushroom Poisoning.
Article in Turkish journal of anaesthesiology and reanimation, 2020. 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
objectiveMushroom poisonings can lead to life-threatening organ dysfunctions and neurotoxicity-related encephalopathy. This study aimed to detect increased intracranial pressure by measuring optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) ultrasonographically and to determine its association with clinical and laboratory parameters.
methodsIn this prospective case-control study, we evaluated the patients aged above 18 years who presented to the emergency department with mushroom poisoning. Vital signs, clinical and laboratory parameters and ONSD of both eyes measured with transocular ultrasound were noted at initial admission and the 24th hour.
resultsWe measured ONSD in 26 cases with mushroom poisoning and 26 healthy volunteers. Baseline ONSD measurements of the poisoning group were significantly higher than those of the control group (5.94±0.73 vs. 4.11±0.64, p<0.0001). ONSD values significantly regressed at 24th hour compared with the baseline measurements in the poisoning group (5.94±0.73 vs. 5.06±0.56, p<0.001).The ONSD values were significantly higher in patients who had a clinical picture of encephalopathy compared with patients who didn't have (6.05±0.72 vs. 4.36±1.03, p<0.001). No significant deterioration was observed in ammonium levels, hepatic and renal functions of the patients.
conclusionWe detected increased ONSDs in patients with mushroom poisoning compared with those in the control healthy volunteers. Our findings suggest that ONSD, measured by ultrasonography, may be safely and effectively used to diagnose transient encephalopathy associated with neurotoxicity.
