Observational study identifies mortality predictors in paraquat poisoning, suggesting early intervention strategies.

Seventy-five percent of patients with acute paraquat poisoning died, indicating a severe outcome associated with this poison.
Key predictors of mortality included significantly higher mean serum creatinine and bilirubin levels among those who died.
This prospective observational study analyzed 103 patients admitted for paraquat poisoning, revealing critical clinical presentations.
Identification of predictors can facilitate timely intervention and treatment strategies for severely intoxicated patients.

Mohan et al. (2025) studied this question.
