Pyroglutamic Acidosis - An Underrecognised Entity Associated with Acetaminophen Use.
Article in Romanian journal of anaesthesia and intensive care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Pyroglutamic acidosis (PGA) is an underrecognized entity characterised by raised anion gap metabolic acidosis (RAGMA) and urinary hyper-excretion of pyroglutamic acid. It is frequently associated with chronic acetaminophen (APAP) ingestion. We report the case of a 73-year-old man with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis treated with voriconazole and APAP for analgesia with a cumulative dose of 160 g over 40 days. PGA was suspected as he developed severe RAGMA and common causes were excluded. Diagnosis was confirmed via urinary organic acid analysis which showed significant hyper-excretion of pyroglutamic acid. APAP was discontinued, and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was administered. His RAGMA rapidly resolved following treatment.
