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

In the present study the effect of 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, and 1.0 µL/mL of the steroid K-canrenoate was evaluated in the third instar larvae of transgenic Drosophila melanogaster (hsp70-lacZ) Bg(9) for 6, 24, and 48 hours of duration. The treatment of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 µL/mL of K-canrenoate did not induce the activity of hsp70 significantly compared to the control. The treatments of 0.8 and 1.0 µL/mL of K-canrenoate not only caused tissue damage but also induced a significant increase in the expression of hsp70 for the different durations of exposure. The results of the present study suggest that the K-canrenoate at 0.8 and 1.0 µL/mL is cytotoxic and caused tissue damage in the third instar larvae of transgenic D. melanogaster (hsp70-lacZ) Bg(9).
