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

Food toxicity is a common cause of morbidity worldwide. Presentations of food toxicity can take diverse forms, depending on the underlying mechanisms. Scombroid is one of the most frequent forms of food toxicity; however, its exact incidence remains unknown owing to similarities with other pathologies. Scombroid is a type of food poisoning caused by the ectopic consumption of histamine that mimics angioedema. Here, we present the case of a 36-year-old male patient who presented to the emergency department (ED) after consuming tuna, with a clinical picture of generalized erythema accompanied by pruritus and gastrointestinal symptoms, without dyspnea, lip or tongue edema, and no known allergies. The patient responded well to an H1 antihistamine, with no relevant analytical changes or hemodynamic stability during observation in the ED.
