Poisoning by Organophosphate Pesticides: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
In many parts of the world, particularly in impoverished nations like Ethiopia, organophosphate compounds operate as suicide agents, are frequently employed as pesticides, and are strong inhibitors of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme. A 21-year-old Ethiopian female, a university student, was admitted to an emergency department on June 22, 2022, with a two-hour history of nausea and elevated secretions of salivation via the mouth. She had no previous history of psychiatric or neurological disorders, but three days before her admission, she quarreled with her boyfriend, became extremely depressed, and decided to commit suicide. She had a two-hour history of nausea and intermittent vomiting and a one-hour history of persistent vomiting, increased salivation secretions through the mouth, chills, progressive sweating, difficulty breathing, and dizziness. Upon admission, her neurological examination in the emergency department revealed a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 9/15. On admission, she was placed on two liters per minute of intranasal oxygen via the nasal cannula. On the same day, she was given atropine 0.15 mg intravenously, and the dose was doubled every 10 minutes until atropinization was achieved, and a bolus dose of 500ml of 0.9% of normal saline was initiated immediately.
