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

Cr(III) is the dominant toxicant at some Superfund sites within the United States and therefore we are interested in its effects. Cr(III)s mechanisms are not well studied or understood because of its low bioavailability. We have attempted to characterize the effects of Cr(III) on gene expression in Fundulus heteroclitus (mummichog) liver. The NOEC and LOEC were determined at 32 and 64 mg/L, respectively, by measuring growth and mortality after exposing juveniles for 30 days. Secondary adult male exposures were performed at 32 mg/L, livers excised, and RNA extracted. Arrays were probed with cDNA from untreated or Cr(III)-exposed adult fish and gene expression was quantified. Cr(III) at 32 mg/L altered the expression of five genes, including GSTtau, GSTalpha, and ALDH4. Ultimately, we anticipate using this gene expression information to ascertain whether Cr(III) is bioavailable at potentially adverse concentrations in contaminated sites.
