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 purpose of this study was to estimate the effect of chlorpromazine on free radical concentration in HEMn-DP melanocytes using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. It was found that chlorpromazine at concentrations of 1 × 10(-7) and 1 × 10(-6) M contributed to the formation of free radicals (g values ~2) in a dose-dependent manner. The increase in free radical formation was accompanied by an increase in cytotoxicity, as shown by a tetrazolium assay. Homogeneous broadening of EPR lines, slow spin-lattice relaxation processes, and strong dipolar interactions characterized all the tested cellular samples. The performed examination of free radical formation in cells exposed to different chlorpromazine concentrations confirmed the usefulness of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy to determine the effect of a drug on free radical production in a cellular model system in vitro.
