Differences in Marine Toxin Poisonings Reported to US Poison Centers After Pandemic Restrictions.
Article in Toxins, 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
This study investigated whether marine toxin poisonings reported to U.S. Poison Centers changed during the height of the pandemic period (April 2020 to December 2021). The National Poison Data System was queried for single-substance human exposure calls between 1 January 2000 and 31 March 2022 pertaining to ichthyosarcotoxins. Incidence rate ratios for exposure calls were calculated using mixed-effects negative binomial regression. Call counts were aggregated by year and regressed on a binary indicator for occurrence during pandemic restrictions. During the peak pandemic period, exposure calls decreased for several toxins: ciguatera poisoning: 0.57 (0.43, 0.76); clupeotoxic fish poisoning: 0.12 (0.04, 0.39); diarrhetic shellfish poisoning: 0.28 (0.16, 0.49); paralytic shellfish poisoning: 0.23 (0.17, 0.33); scombroid fish poisoning: 0.46 (0.36, 0.57). However, palytoxin poisoning (1.94 (1.32, 2.84)) and tetrodotoxin poisoning (1.73 (1.46, 2.04)) exposure calls appear to have increased. All results were Bonferroni-significant (
