Case Report: A case of sudden death due to occupational nicotine poisoning: clinical presentation and MRI findings.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 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
Background: Nicotine is a toxic alkaloid commonly found in tobacco products. This paper presents the clinical case of a patient who was exposed to a nicotine-laden waste liquid. Case presentation: A 24-year-old male arrived at a local hospital in a state of coma and cardiac arrest. Following successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation, he was transferred to our facility for further treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging of the patient's head and neck revealed bilateral ischemic infarctions in the hippocampal region. After 24 days of treatment, the patient was discharged with significant improvement. Discussion: This case highlights the potential for severe clinical manifestations to arise shortly after a single exposure to a substantial amount of nicotine. Conclusion: In clinical practice, it is crucial to promptly assess the patient's occupational history to identify the cause of the condition, closely monitor vital signs, and provide active supportive and symptomatic care. Additionally, this case underscores the importance of ensuring production safety and increasing awareness regarding occupational exposure risks.
