Clinical manifestations and treatment management of hospitalized patients with zinc phosphide poisoning, Mazandaran Province, Northern Iran.

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
backgroundZinc phosphide (ZnP) is a dark gray crystalline compound used as a rodenticide against rodents such as mice. ZnP poisoning may be accidental or suicidal. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical manifestations and treatment management of hospitalized patients with ZnP poisoning in Mazandaran Province, northern Iran.
methodsBetween 2013 and 2017, a cross-sectional study was performed on hospitalized patients with ZnP poisoning who were referred to two training hospitals in Mazandaran Province, northern Iran.
resultsA total of 127 patients participated in this trial, including 71 (55.9%) men and 56 (44.1%) women. The patients' average (standard deviation) age was 25.5 (±16.82) years, and it took 2.18 (±2.23) hours to refer them to the hospital. There were 42 (33%) cases with less than one package, 9 (7%) cases with several packages, and 76 (60%) cases with no particular usage.
conclusionsThis study has shown that ZnP poisoning may be asymptomatic initially or with mild clinical symptoms that may gradually worsen. Therefore, hospitalization and obtaining a history and a careful physical examination should be considered.
