A Cyanotic Dilemma: Nitrobenzene Poisoning-A Case Report.

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
Acquired methemoglobinemia can rarely be caused by acute nitrobenzene poisoning, presenting as oxygen-unresponsive, life-threatening hypoxia. We discuss a case of a 19-year-old female who attempted suicide through intentional nitrobenzene poisoning. She presented to the emergency department with progressive cyanosis, severe abdominal pain, and dyspnea. Her symptoms were suggestive of methemoglobinemia, which was confirmed through arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis, revealing a methemoglobin level of 37.5%. Treatment included intravenous methylene blue, vitamin C, and supportive care, leading to clinical improvement. This case highlights the critical need for early recognition and timely administration of methylene blue, particularly in resource-limited settings where delayed diagnosis can increase morbidity. It also signifies the importance of integrating psychiatric evaluation and mental health support in cases of intentional poisoning to prevent recurrence.
