Exploring the Protective Role of G6PD Deficiency in Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Aluminum phosphide (ALP) poisoning poses a significant public health concern worldwide, with a high mortality rate and no established definitive treatment. This case report highlights a 30-year-old male with G6PD deficiency who ingested ALP tablets, presenting with jaundice and anemia. Despite the severity of ALP poisoning, the concurrent G6PD deficiency appeared to confer a protective effect, potentially mitigating complications. Laboratory investigations revealed characteristic findings, including unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia and normocytic hypochromic anemia. Treatment involved supportive measures and transfusion, leading to clinical improvement and discharge. The discussion focuses on the pathophysiology of G6PD deficiency and its protective role against ALP poisoning, supported by a literature review and experimental evidence. Moreover, potential therapeutic interventions targeting oxidative stress are discussed. This case underscores the importance of considering G6PD deficiency in ALP poisoning management and highlights avenues for further research into protective mechanisms and treatment strategies.
