Severe Viper Envenomation: A Case Report From Portugal.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Snakebite envenomation is uncommon in Portugal but may lead to significant morbidity when systemic toxicity develops. We report a case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with hypotension, progressive limb edema, and venom-induced coagulopathy following a viper bite. The progression of edema, together with systemic toxicity, prompted early antivenom administration and transfer to an intermediate care unit, with a second dose required in response to persistent edema. Supportive management included fluid resuscitation, limb elevation, and empirical antibiotic therapy for persistent fever. The patient showed progressive clinical and laboratory improvement, ultimately achieving full recovery. This case underscores the importance of early recognition of systemic toxicity and timely antivenom therapy to prevent severe complications associated with viper envenomation.
