Blood levels may predict organ damage in diquat poisoning
NCT ID NCT06798142
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks 193 people who swallowed the herbicide diquat to see how the amount of poison in their blood relates to damage in organs like the brain. Researchers will also look at how well blood-filtering treatments work. The goal is to better predict who is at highest risk and improve emergency care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
extracorporeal treatment (blood filtering procedures like hemoperfusion and continuous dialysis)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better predict organ damage in diquat poisoning and tailor treatments like blood filtering to improve survival.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly test a new therapy. Results may not apply to all poisoning cases, and the sample size is modest.
