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

Cultured rat fibroblasts, monkey kidney tumor cells (line Vero) and murine neuroblastoma cells were exposed to dopamine or dopaminochrome in the presence and absence of ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid is able to potentiate the toxicity of both dopamine and dopaminochrome for all the tested cells. The toxicity of dopaminochrome was higher than that of dopamine. There is a correlation between toxicity and levels of bioreductive defenses of the cells, e.g. DT-diaphorase (NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase EC 1.6.99.2) and glutathione. In general, tumor cells have lower defenses and seem to be more sensitive to the toxic action.
