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

Hinokitiol, a natural lipophilic chelator, appears capable of replacing several iron transporters after they have been genetically ablated. Divalent metal-ion transporter (DMT1) is the major iron importer in enterocytes and erythroblasts. We have compared DMT1 and hinokitiol in multiple fashions to learn if the smaller molecule is a suitable substitute using two HEK293 cell lines engineered to overexpress different isoforms of DMT1. Both the macromolecule and the lipophilic chelator enable import of ferrous ions into HEK293 cells. Hinokitiol also mediates ferric ion import but DMT1 cannot do so. While DMT1 can also import Mn
