Henna-Induced Intravascular Hemolysis in a Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase-Deficient Ghanaian Female Child with Full Defect.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 2025. 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
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, a sex-linked chromosomal disorder, is the most common enzymopathy in humans. This enzyme, which protects red blood cells, when deficient, predisposes individuals to hemolysis under oxidative stress. Several chemicals and drugs have been commonly known to cause hemolysis in G6PD deficiency. However, an uncommon substance, henna, a plant-based dye used in Africa and Asia, has also been described to trigger hemolysis in G6PD-deficient individuals. It shares similarities in the structural ring and properties with other well-described G6PD hemolytic agents. We present a rare case of severe intravascular hemolysis following topical henna application in an 8-year-old girl with G6PD deficiency, successfully managed at the Upper West Regional Hospital in Ghana.
