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

Acute cyanide toxicity is very rare but it is almost always associated with fatal outcomes. Here we describe the case of a 43-year-old healthy male who worked in a jewelry factory and presented with acute cyanide toxicity. He was successfully managed with all the supportive measures and an appropriate antidote kit containing amyl nitrite, sodium nitrite, and sodium thiosulfate. We also describe the relevant importance of knowing the history of easy access to cyanide as a part of the patient's profession, the critical nature of the patient at presentation, as well as the efforts needed to procure the antidote.
