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

Chlorpyrifos (CP), an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, is used throughout the world as an insecticide in agriculture and an eradicating agent for termites around homes. In the present study, we examined the protective role of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in human CP-treated lymphocytes. Lymphocytes isolated by Ficoll and exposed to 75 µg/mL CP either alone or in combination with logarithmic doses of ZnO NPs (0/1, 1, 10, 100 µg/mL). After a 3-day incubation period, the viability and oxidative stress markers were determined. Then, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), as an inflammatory index along with AChE activity and cell death were evaluated. Our results showed that incubation with CP significantly increases the percent of cell death, activities of caspase-3 and -9, level of TNF-α and also promotes the levels of biomarkers which play important role in oxidative stress. On the other hand, the activity of AChE and levels of the total antioxidant power (TAP) decreased in CP-treated lymphocytes. In contrast, lymphocytes treated with different concentrations of ZnO NPs showed a significant decrease in the percent of mortality as well as the levels of TNF-α, as compared with CP-treated lymphocytes. Besides, ZnO NPs increased the levels of AChE and TAP at 1 µg/mL. In conclusion, the results indicate the protective effects of ZnO NPs in the prevention of cytotoxic activity of CP in the lymphocytes.
