Ketamine and metabolites in snake venom: effects of venom extraction and potential impact on animal models.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In zootoxinology, drugs such as anesthetics and secretion enhancers are used to increase venom yields, but it is unclear whether this affects the venom composition. After injection of ketamine and pilocarpine into two non-front-fanged snakes, mass spectrometry confirmed the presence of both drugs and their metabolites in the venoms. The quantified high concentrations raise concerns about potential interference in bioassays and pharmacological studies, highlighting the need to consider extraction additives in venom research to ensure unbiased results.
