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
introductionAcute pediatric poisoning poses significant morbidity and mortality to a country. This study looks at the pattern of acute pediatric poisoning in ages 0-12 years old presenting to a pediatric emergency department in a tertiary hospital in Kuala Lumpur.
methodWe performed a retrospective review of acute pediatric poisoning aged 0-12 years old presenting to the pediatric emergency department of Hospital Tunku Azizah Kuala Lumpur from 1st January 2021 to 30th June 2022.
resultsA total of 90 patients were included in this study. The ratio of female to male patients was 2:3. Oral ingestion was the most common route of poisoning. 73% of patients were from 0-5 years old and primarily asymptomatic. Pharmaceutical agents were the most common agent of poisoning-no mortality in this study.
