Ethylene glycol poisoning: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundEthylene glycol (EG) poisoning is often caused by the accidental ingestion of antifreeze. EG is metabolized into glycolate and oxalate and may cause metabolic acidaemia, neurotoxicity, acute kidney injury, and death. A variety of EG poisoning case reports have been published, and we wrote this case report and literature review to summarize the clinical experience of patients who survived EG poisoning. CASE SUMMARY: In this case report, a 55-year-old man developed EG poisoning after ingesting antifreeze by accident and experienced acute kidney injury, nervous system dysfunction and inhalation pneumonia. The timely use of ethanol for detoxification, initiation of haemodialysis, and protection of organ function are effective treatment methods for patients with antifreeze poisoning. The patient was discharged in the 3rd week after admission. When discharged, the patient did not report any discomfort, had stable vital signs, did not have fever or diarrhoea, and had improved liver and kidney functions.
conclusionA timely diagnosis, haemodialysis, and organ protection are the keys to the successful treatment of poisoned patients.
