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

The teratogenic effect of Adriamycin (doxorubicin) in the rat model, and more recently in the mouse, has provided paediatric surgeons with a reliable, easily reproducible method of studying the embryology and molecular biology for a range of complex congenital anomalies. Concomitantly these animal models have stimulated interest among embryologists for the effect on the notochord, shedding more light on the important organizational role of this structure in the developing embryo. Finally, as more is learnt of the pathogenesis of the various malformations induced by Adriamycin, future therapeutic interventions involving gene therapy, drugs or surgery may arise. This article reviews the establishment of the Adriamycin rat and mouse models, examines their impact on various congenital malformations, and suggests targets for further research.
