Influences of zinc oxide nanoparticles on Allium cepa root cells and the primary cause of phytotoxicity.
Article in Ecotoxicology (London, England), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are widely used in consumer products, which have raised concerns about their impact on the human health and environment. In this study, Allium cepa were treated with 5 and 50 μg/mL ZnO-NPs solutions for 12, 24, and 36 h, respectively. The cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of ZnO-NPs in root meristems of Allium cepa cells were characterized by cell membrane integrity, metabolic activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, DNA damage, chromosome aberration, and cell cycle progression. Substantially elevated Zn levels were observed in the cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions, and the accumulation of zinc in the nuclear fraction (up to 9764 μg/g) was one magnitude greater than that in the cytoplasm (up to 541 μg/g).
