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

Suicide by poisoning, particularly through the ingestion of agricultural pesticides, remains a prevalent method of self-harm in India due to their widespread availability and accessibility. We present a case of a married woman who intentionally ingested an agricultural pesticide and simultaneously administered the same substance to her four children by mixing it into tea. Despite intensive medical intervention, the woman succumbed to poisoning, whereas all four children survived. This case constitutes an unusual instance of suicide associated with attempted filicide by the use of pesticides. Motivating factors for this tragic event included prolonged domestic abuse, financial hardship, and social isolation. The report discusses the clinical course and forensic evaluation, including clinical forensic assessment, autopsy examination, and medicolegal aspects of pesticide poisoning (organophosphorus compound), emphasizing the toxicological profile of such agents. The report also emphasizes the broader public health implications of intentional poisoning events and the forensic significance of filicide associated with maternal suicide.
