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

This study reports a comparative and mechanistic genotoxicity assessment of four engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) across three species, including E. coli, yeast, and human cells, with the aim to reveal the distinct potential genotoxicity mechanisms among the different nanomaterials and their association with physiochemical features. Both the conventional phenotypic alkaline comet test and the newly developed quantitative toxicogenomics assay, that detects and quantifies molecular level changes in the regulation of six DNA damage repair pathways, were employed. The proposed molecular endpoints derived from the toxicogenomics assays, namely TELI (Transcriptional Effect Level Index) and PELI (Protein Effect Level Index), correlated well with the phenotypic DNA damage endpoints from comet tests, suggesting that the molecular genotoxicity assay is suitable for genotoxicity detection. Temporal altered gene or protein expression profiles revealed various potential DNA damage types and relevant genotoxic mechanisms induced by the tested ENMs. nTiO2_a induced a wide spectrum of DNA damage consistently across three species. Three carbon-based ENMs, namely carbon black, single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and fullerene, exhibited distinct, species and ENM property-dependent DNA damage mechanisms. All carbon based ENMs induced relatively weak DNA damage repair response in E. coli, but more severe DNA double strand break in eukaryotes. The differences in cellular structure and defense systems among prokaryotic and eukaryotic species lead to distinct susceptibility and mechanisms for ENM uptake and, thus, varying DNA damages and repair responses. The observation suggested that eukaryotes, especially mammalian cells, are likely more susceptible to genotoxicity than prokaryotes in the ecosystem when exposed to these ENMs.
