Advanced Imaging in Methanol Toxicity: Bilateral Putaminal Necrosis and Frontal-Occipital Ischemia-A Case Report.

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
Methanol toxicity remains a critical yet challenging diagnosis due to its nonspecific early presentation and potential for delayed intervention. Although methanol itself is nontoxic, its metabolite-formic acid-induces severe metabolic acidosis and neurotoxicity, particularly affecting the basal ganglia and optic nerves. We present a case of a male in his 50s with altered mental status and visual impairment following windshield washer fluid ingestion. Initial computed tomography (CT) was unremarkable, but follow-up imaging revealed bilateral putaminal necrosis and subcortical white matter involvement, including the frontal and occipital lobes. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) findings demonstrated acute ischemia and necrosis, underscoring the value of advanced imaging when methanol toxicity is suspected. This case highlights the importance of recognizing characteristic radiological patterns to facilitate timely diagnosis and improve patient outcomes.
