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

Procarbazine hydrochloride (PCH) is a DNA-reactive hematopoietic carcinogen with potent and well-characterized clastogenic activity. However, there is a paucity of in vivo mutagenesis data for PCH, and in vitro assays often fail to detect the genotoxic effects of PCH due to the complexity of its metabolic activation. We comprehensively evaluated the in vivo genotoxicity of PCH on hematopoietic cells of male MutaMouse transgenic rodents using a study design that facilitated assessments of micronuclei and Pig-a mutation in circulating erythrocytes, and lacZ mutant frequencies in bone marrow. Mice were orally exposed to PCH (0, 6.25, 12.5, and 25 mg/kg/day) for 28 consecutive days. Blood samples collected 2 days after cessation of treatment exhibited significant dose-related induction of micronuclei in both immature and mature erythrocytes. Bone marrow and blood collected 3 and 70 days after cessation of treatment also showed significantly elevated mutant frequencies in both the lacZ and Pig-a assays even at the lowest dose tested. PCH-induced lacZ and Pig-a (immature and mature erythrocytes) mutant frequencies were highly correlated, with R
