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

Methaemoglobinaemia is a rare disorder characterized by increased levels of methaemoglobin, a form of haemoglobin with oxidized iron that cannot efficiently bind oxygen. This leads to inadequate oxygen delivery to tissues with various clinical manifestations from asymptomatic to severe persistent hypoxia, CNS symptoms, and cardiovascular collapse. Acquired methaemoglobinaemia is typically a sudden condition, often resulting from poisoning by specific drugs and compounds, which can potentially have fatal consequences. We present a case of a patient who came with severe methaemoglobinaemia due to intoxication with cocaine and amphetamine.
