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

Blunt-ended DNase II-type breaks with 5' hydroxyls are generated in phagocytic cells of any lineage during digestion of the engulfed DNA. These breaks indicate the ongoing active phagocytic reaction. They are produced by the acid deoxyribonuclease-DNase II which is the primary endonuclease responsible for DNA degradation after its engulfment.Here, we present an express approach that detects blunt-ended 5' OH DNA breaks in fixed tissue sections. The technique is simple to perform and takes only 60 min to complete. It can be useful in studies of the clearance of dying cells in oncological, inflammatory, and autoimmune disorders.
