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

objectiveTo determine sildenafil citrate (SC) genotoxicity and cytotoxicity in the Callithrix jacchus. STUDY

designFifteen organisms were assigned to one of three groups as follows: experimental (25 mg/kg of SC); negative control (glucose solution 5%); and positive control (3 mg/kg of cytocine arabinoside). Systemic hemodynamic changes were monitored in each animal before and after each treatment. A drop of blood was obtained before and after the treatment at 24-120 h. Smears were made and the frequency of micronucleated erythrocytes (MNE), micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MNPCE) and polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) was counted.

resultsNo significant differences in MNE, MNPCE and PCE were found in the group that received sildenafil and negative control. A significant increase in genotoxicity and cytotoxicity was observed in the positive control group. No changes were observed in systemic hemodynamic changes.

conclusionThe macro-dose of SC lacks genotoxic, cytotoxic or systemic hemodynamic changes effects in this species.
