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 density of hepatocellular catalase-containing peroxisomes was quantified, utilizing a computer-aided image analysing technique, on 1-micron thick diaminobenzidine-stained sections. Hepatic copper accumulation following intraperitoneal injection of cupric chloride resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in the density of catalase-containing peroxisomes. A significant correlation between the density of peroxisomes and the activity of hepatic catalase indicated that computer-aided image analysis of peroxisomes stained by the diaminobenzidine technique provided a useful estimate of catalase activity in liver injured by copper. Slight treatment-related differences in the mean diameter of peroxisomes were detected in high-dose but not low-dose rats.
