Biological chemistry of reactive oxygen and nitrogen and radiation-induced signal transduction mechanisms.
Review in Oncogene, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 183 papers.
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
In the past few years, nuclear DNA damage-sensing mechanisms activated by ionizing radiation have been identified, including ATM/ATR and the DNA-dependent protein kinase. Less is known about sensing mechanisms for cytoplasmic ionization events and how these events influence nuclear processes. Several studies have demonstrated the importance of cytoplasmic signaling pathways in cytoprotection and mutagenesis. For cytoplasmic signaling, radiation-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are essential activators of these pathways. This review summarizes recent studies on the chemistry of radiation-induced ROS/RNS generation and emphasizes interactions between ROS and RNS and the relative roles of cellular ROS/RNS generators as amplifiers of the initial ionization events. Cellular mechanisms for regulating ROS/RNS levels are discussed. The mechanisms by which cells sense ROS/RNS are examined in terms of how ROS/RNS modify protein structure and function, for example, interactions with metal-thiol clusters, protein tyrosine nitration, protein cysteine oxidation, S-thiolation and S-nitrosylation. We propose that radiation-induced ROS are the initiators and that nitric oxide (NO*) or derivatives are the effectors activating these signal transduction pathways. In responding to cellular ionization events, the cell converts an oxidative signal to a nitrosative one because ROS are too reactive and unspecific in their reactions for regulatory purposes and the cell is equipped to precisely modulate NO* levels.
