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

The aromatic amino compound 5-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical products. However, the toxicity profile of this compound is sparse and no related poisoning events have been reported. Here, we report the case of a 35-year-old man who inhaled 5-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine at work. After inhalation, the patient rapidly developed symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, chest tightness, and loss of consciousness. After admission, methemoglobinemia, hemolytic anemia, acute renal failure, and toxic encephalopathy occurred. Symptoms improved significantly after intravenous treatment with a low dose of methylene blue. This revealed that 5-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine is toxic to the human body and can be absorbed through the respiratory tract, resulting in methemoglobinemia and toxic encephalopathy; thus, caution should be taken in industrial production.
