Evaluation of Risk Factors of Snake Envenomation and Associated Complications Presenting to Two Emergency Departments in Oman.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objectives: To assess the risk factors of snake envenomation and the associated complications that patients present with, using data from two different emergency departments in Oman. The secondary aim was to describe the common characteristics of the presenting patients. Methods: This multicenter retrospective observational study reviewed all cases presenting with symptoms of snakebite to the emergency departments of Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (tertiary) from March 2016 until August 2017 and Rustaq Hospital (secondary) from August 2015 to August 2017. Results: A total of 212 cases met the inclusion criteria. Coagulopathy was observed in 82 (38.7%) patients, while 14 (6.6%) had acute kidney injury (AKI) and 5 (2.4%) had external bleeding. Of the patients who developed AKI, 85.7% ( Conclusions: The location (terrain) where the snake was encountered was associated with the patient's risk for either AKI or coagulopathy, which suggests the preference of different snake species to different types of habitat. The time elapsed between the bite and the ASV administration was associated with higher risk of development of AKI or coagulopathy.
