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

As demonstrated in Part I, cultured MutaMouse primary hepatocytes (PHs) are suitable cells for use in an in vitro gene mutation assay due to their metabolic competence, their "normal" phenotype, and the presence of the MutaMouse transgene for reliable mutation scoring. The performance of these cells in an in vitro gene mutation assay is evaluated in this study, Part II. A panel of 13 mutagenic and nonmutagenic compounds was selected to investigate the performance of the MutaMouse PH in vitro gene mutation assay. The nine mutagens represent a range of classes of chemicals and include mutagens that are both direct-acting and requiring metabolic activation. All the mutagens tested, except for ICR 191, elicited significant, concentration-dependent increases in mutant frequency (MF) ranging from 2.6- to 14.4-fold over the control. None of the four nonmutagens, including two misleading, or "false," positives (i.e., tertiary butylhydroquinone [TBHQ] and eugenol), yielded any significant increases in MF. The benchmark dose covariate approach facilitated ranking of the positive chemicals from most (i.e., 3-nitrobenzanthrone [3-NBA], benzo[a]pyrene [BaP], and aflatoxin B
