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

Background: "Human skin gas," the trace amounts of bio-volatile gases emitted from the surface of human skin, contains a variety of biological information and can be used in diagnosing several diseases. Herein, we described a case of the identification of the causative agent in a patient with acute poisoning using human skin gas. Case Presentation: A 52-year-old man cut his wrists and neck and crashed his car into a tunnel wall. The patient informed the paramedics that he had taken paraquat dimethyl sulfate and was transported to our emergency medical center. Since paraquat was not found in the home, the skin gas was measured, and ortho-dichlorobenzene was detected. An insecticide containing ortho-dichlorobenzene was found in the home, and he was strongly suggested with ortho-dichlorobenzene poisoning. Conclusion: The human skin gas assay was used to identify intoxicants and is useful for the diagnosis of poisoning.
