Treatment of a patient with aconitine poisoning using veno-arterial membrane oxygenation: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAconitine poisoning is highly prone to causing malignant arrhythmias. The elimination of aconitine from the body takes a considerable amount of time, and during this period, patients are at a significant risk of death due to malignant arrhythmias associated with aconitine poisoning. CASE SUMMARY: A 30-year-old male patient was admitted due to accidental ingestion of aconitine-containing drugs. Upon arrival at the emergency department, the patient intermittently experienced malignant arrhythmias including ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, ventricular premature beats, and cardiac arrest. Emergency interventions such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation and defibrillation were promptly administered. Additionally, veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) therapy was initiated. Successful resuscitation was achieved before ECMO placement, but upon initiation of ECMO, the patient experienced recurrent malignant arrhythmias. ECMO was utilized to maintain hemodynamics and respiration, while continuous blood purification therapy for toxin clearance, mechanical ventilation, and hypothermic brain protection therapy were concurrently administered. On the third day of VA-ECMO support, the patient's respiratory and hemodynamic status stabilized, with only frequent ventricular premature beats observed on electrocardiographic monitoring, and echocardiography indicated recovery of cardiac contractile function. On the fourth day, a significant reduction in toxin levels was observed, along with stable hemodynamic and respiratory functions. Following a successful pump-controlled retrograde trial occlusion test, ECMO assistance was terminated. The patient gradually improved postoperatively and achieved recovery. He was discharged 11 days later.
conclusionVA-ECMO can serve as a bridging resuscitation technique for patients with reversible malignant arrhythmias.
