Whole Cigarette Smoke Condensates Induce Accumulation of Amyloid Beta Precursor Protein with Oxidative Stress in Murine Astrocytes.
Article in Toxics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Although cigarette smoking has been postulated to be a potential risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), the toxic mechanism is still unclear. Additionally, astrocytes have been identified as a potential target, given they play multiple roles in maintaining normal brain function. In this study, we explored the toxic mechanism of whole cigarette smoke condensates (WCSC) using murine astrocytes. Cell proliferation, the percentage of cells in the G2/M phase, and LDH concentrations in the cell supernatants were all reduced in WCSC-treated cells. In addition, oxidative stress was induced, together with shortening of processes, structural damage of organelles, disturbances in mitochondrial function, blockage of autophagic signals, accumulation of amyloid β precursor protein, and loss of chemotactic functions. Based on these results, we hypothesize that dysfunction of astrocytes may contribute to the occurrence of cigarette-smoking-induced AD.
