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

Methanol, or wood alcohol, is a clear liquid with a weak odor, slightly sweeter than ethanol, which is easily accessible. The last makes it a product of choice for intentional self-harm, severe intoxication, or even suicide. Accidental ingestion and homicidal usage are not exclusions. We present and discuss the case of a man in his 20s who was in continuous alcoholic intoxication until he finally abused with methanol and was admitted to a hospital, where he died six days later. When it comes to intoxication, there are often no apparent findings that could help in determining the cause and manner of death. The last is especially important in cases of delayed death when the toxicology results are negative.
