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

This article reports a case of a patient who developed nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, succeeded by oliguria and acute kidney injury, after exposure to a chromium-containing additive pool water while working. The patient was diagnosed with acute kidney injury, third-degree skin burns, and gastroenteritis. Subsequently, the patient was treated with antioxidant stress management, hemodialysis, and surgical debridement with skin grafting. After 1 year, the patient's condition gradually improved. In addition, renal biopsy pathology suggested acute interstitial nephritis. In combination, with the medical history and blood chromium monitoring, its kidney pathology was confirmed to be caused by heavy metal chromium poisoning. This case highlights the importance of obtaining a clear history of high exposure to heavy metals for the diagnosis of acute kidney injury, and early active treatment can improve the success rate of rescue.
