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

While hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is generally considered as a genotoxic environmental carcinogen, studies showed that Cr(VI) exposure also causes epigenetic changes. However, whether Cr(VI)-caused epigenetic dysregulations plays an important role in Cr(VI) carcinogenicity remain largely unknown. The aim of this study was to determine if chronic low dose Cr(VI) exposure causes epigenetic changes, the underlying mechanism and whether chronic low dose Cr(VI) exposure-caused epigenetic dysregulation contributes causally to Cr(VI)-induced cancer stem cell (CSC)-like property and cell transformation. Two immortalized human bronchial epithelial cell lines (BEAS-2B and 16HBE) were exposed to 0.25 μM of K
