Hydrogen fluoride inhalation injury complicated by acute respiratory distress syndrome : A case report of successful management with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and continuous renal replacement therapy.

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
rationaleHydrogen fluoride (HF) inhalation injury is a rare but life-threatening condition that can lead to chemical pneumonitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and systemic fluoride poisoning. Currently, standardized treatment protocols for HF-induced ARDS are lacking and the optimal management strategy remains to be established. PATIENT CONCERNS: A middle-aged male patient was discovered after inhaling 53% hydrogen fluoride gas and transferred to our hospital within 5 h, presenting with respiratory distress, hypoxemia and diffuse pulmonary opacities on computed tomography (CT). DIAGNOSES: Severe HF inhalation injury, chemical pneumonitis, severe ARDS, acute kidney injury, distributive shock and systemic fluoride toxicity with hypocalcemia.
interventionsUrgent venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) with integrated continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), high-dose methylprednisolone, continuous calcium gluconate infusion, and electrolyte monitoring. OUTCOMES: Oxygenation improved, pulmonary exudates resolved and the patient was weaned off ECMO. At 7‑month follow-up, lung lesions and renal function normalized with no long-term complications. LESSONS: Early VV-ECMO supports oxygenation when conventional therapy fails, while CRRT aids fluoride elimination. Timely multimodal intervention is critical for HF-induced ARDS and renal failure outcomes.
