Plasma Concentration of Taurine Changes following Acetaminophen Overdose in Male Patients during Hospitalization.
Article in Iranian journal of pharmaceutical research : IJPR, 2021. 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
Changes in plasma concentration of taurine during hospitalization of acetaminophen poisoned patients have not been studied. Hepatotoxicity is a common consequence of acetaminophen overdose that may lead to acute liver failure. Numerous biomarkers for drug-induced liver injury have been explored. All biomarkers are usually obtainable 48 h following acetaminophen overdose. We have already introduced taurine as a non-specific early biomarker of acetaminophen overdose. This study aimed to follow up changes in plasma concentration of taurine during the first three days of acetaminophen overdose. Sixty-four male patients suffering from acetaminophen overdose were selected for the study. Four blood samples were taken from the patients every 12 h. Sixty blood samples were also taken from sixty healthy humans. The plasma concentration of taurine in both groups was analyzed an already developed HPLC method. Analysis of regression showed a significant correlation between means of plasma concentrations of taurine and acetaminophen, aspartate aminotransferase, Alanine aminotransferase, glutathione peroxidase, and prothrombin time during hospitalization. The high plasma concentration of taurine, 6 h or more after acetaminophen overdose, could be a useful early indicator of liver damage.
