Epirubicin permeation of personal protective equipment can induce apoptosis in keratinocytes.

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
The present study investigated the epirubicin (EPI) permeability of various commercially available glove types, as well as toxicity mechanisms and effects on human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT). Permeability experiments were carried out on various commercially available gloves, differing as regards material and thickness. Permeability was evaluated after different "contact times" and the influence of EPI solution's pH (acid and neutral) on permeability was also examined. Toxicity of EPI toward skin was tested by evaluating the effects of the drug on cell growth and apoptosis, by using an in vitro model based on cultured immortalized human keratinocytes. No permeation was detected in the case of EPI neutral solutions; in contrast, acid solutions were found to penetrate low thickness nitrile gloves. Obtained results also showed the induction of apoptosis in epithelial cells through the activation of intrinsic pathway p53-independent occurring even when cells are exposed at low drug concentration. EPI solution's pH influences the glove's permeability; once penetrated, EPI at concentrations lower than those able to penetrate the nitrile glove during the 8-h work-shift can cause apoptosis in epithelial cells. The findings reported here highly support the choice of either natural rubbers gloves or high thickness nitrile ones for preventing the occupational exposure to EPI.
