Dose-response carcinogenicity in rats on low-dose levels of N-ethyl-N-nitrosourethane.
Article in Japanese journal of cancer research : Gann, 1989. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
A dose-response study on the carcinogenicity of N-ethyl-N-nitrosourethane (ENUR) was undertaken to examine its effect at low doses. Six-week-old female F344 rats were divided into 5 groups, each consisting of 40 animals. ENUR was dissolved in distilled water at dose levels of 0 (control), 0.15, 0.6, 2.5 and 10 ppm, and rats were given these solutions ad libitum for 2 years. Significant increase of the total tumor incidences and shortening of the mean survival times were observed in groups given 2.5 and 10 ppm ENUR. In groups given 0.6 ppm or more ENUR, digestive tract tumors were induced dose-dependently. They were restricted to the upper digestive tract from the oral cavity to the forestomach, and were histologically squamous cell papillomas or carcinomas. Dose-related differences in the location and incidence of these tumors were found. The virtually safe doses (VSDs) calculated by using the Weibull, Logit and Probit models were 0.365 x 10(-2), 0.110 x 10(-1) and 0.779 x 10(-1) ppm, respectively. The VSDs estimated in the present study are discussed in comparison with those of other carcinogens.
