Forensic identification of a fatal snakebite from Bungarus multicinctus (Chinese krait) by pathological and toxicological findings: a case report.

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
Bungarus multicinctus (B. multicinctus) is one of the top ten venomous snakes in China, ranking first in lethality at 26.9-33.3%. However, to our knowledge, no forensic autopsy-related cases of death from B. multicinctus bite poisoning have been reported. There are surprisingly few reported cases of death from poisoning by other species of neurotoxic snakes. Neurotoxic snake venom is often highly toxic, and death can quickly occur when bitten in the wild if victims are not taken to a doctor in time. We presented a case of an adult female in Fujian Province of China who was bitten by a poisonous snake while digging for bamboo shoots in the mountains and died from the bite of B. multicinctus confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) results. The autopsy's results, histopathological findings, and ELISA results reported here can be helpful for future forensic practice in B. multicinctus venom poisoning; we also briefly review the pathological changes of neurotoxin poisoning, which may be useful in other types of neurotoxin snake venom poisoning.
