A web-based tool for designing experimental studies to detect hormesis and estimate the threshold dose.
Article in Statistical papers (Berlin, Germany), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hormesis has been widely observed and debated in a variety of context in biomedicine and toxicological sciences. Detecting its presence can be an important problem with wide ranging implications. However, there is little work on constructing an efficient experiment to detect its existence or estimate the threshold dose. We use optimal design theory to develop a variety of locally optimal designs to detect hormesis, estimate the threshold dose and the zero-equivalent point (ZEP) for commonly used models in toxicology and risk assessment. To facilitate use of more efficient designs to detect hormesis, estimate threshold dose and estimate the ZEP in practice, we implement computer algorithms and create a user-friendly web site to help the biomedical researcher generate different types of optimal designs. The online tool facilitates the user to evaluate robustness properties of a selected design to various model assumptions and compare designs before implementation.
