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
In order to examine the usefulness of intratracheal instillation of nanoparticles for the screening of the harmful effects of nanoparticles, we performed intratracheal instillation studies of nanomaterials on rats using different delivery devices and postures as a basic study. Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with a geometric mean length and secondary diameter of 2.16 μm and 752 nm, respectively, were used as the nanomaterials. Male F344 rats were intratracheally exposed to 0.04 or 0.2 mg/rat of MWCNT, were dissected at 1 d and 3 d, and cell analyses of the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were analyzed. Two delivery devices were used for the intratracheal instillation of the MWCNTs: a gavage needle and a microsprayer aerolizer. Both induced neutrophil influx in the lung at 1 and 3 d, and there were no significant differences in neutrophil inflammation between the two delivery devices. The main distribution of pulmonary inflammation by both delivery devices was in the centrilobular spaces in the lung. Two postures were used: an angle of approximately 45 degrees and a standing posture on a board, both of which also induced pulmonary influx in BALF and pulmonary inflammation mainly in the centrilobular spaces, with no large difference in pulmonary inflammation between the two postures. Taken together, the differences in the delivery devices and postures of the rats in the intratracheal instillation did not affect the acute pulmonary toxicity of the nanomaterials.
