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

The increasing potential for accidental radiation exposure from either nuclear accidents or terrorist activities has escalated the need for radiation countermeasure development. We previously showed that a 30-day course of high-dose captopril, an ACE inhibitor, initiated 1-4 h after total body irradiation (TBI), improved Hematopoietic Acute Radiation Syndrome (H-ARS) and increased survival in mice. However, because of the time likely required for the deployment of a stockpiled radiation countermeasure to a radiation mass casualty site, there is a need for therapies that can be administered 24-48 hours after initial exposure. Using C57BL/6 mice exposed to an LD
