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

The efficacy of hemoperfusion (HP) in patients with acute paraquat poisoning (PQ) remains controversial. We conducted a multi-center retrospective study to include acute PQ-poisoned patients admitted to two tertiary medical centers between 2005 and 2015. We used the Severity Index of Paraquat Poisoning (SIPP) to stratify the severity of PQ-poisoned patients. The indication to start HP was a positive result for the semiquantitative urine PQ test and presentation to the hospital was within 24 h. Early HP was defined as the first session of HP performed within five hours of PQ ingestion. A total of 213 patients (100 HP group, 113 non-HP group) were eligible for the study. The overall 60-day mortality of poisoned patients was 75.6% (161/213). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed no statistically significant difference in 60-day survival between HP and non-HP groups (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.84-1.63,
