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

Methemoglobin is a form of hemoglobin that has been oxidized, changing its heme iron configuration from the ferrous to the ferric state. Unlike normal hemoglobin, methemoglobin does not bind oxygen and as a result, cannot deliver oxygen to the tissues. At the presentation in the emergency department, an electrocardiogram (EKG) is usually performed as a reflex for patients admitted for shortness of breath to rule out acute coronary syndrome. Very limited data is available on EKG abnormalities in patients with methemoglobinemia. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the pattern of EKG changes in patients with methemoglobinemia.
