Hormesis Effect of Methyl Triclosan on Cell Proliferation and Migration in Human Hepatocyte L02 Cells.
Article in ACS omega, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Methyl triclosan (mTCS) is a methylated derivative of triclosan (TCS), which is extensively used as an antimicrobial component of various nursing products and disinfectants. Current research studies of mTCS mainly focused on the environmental persistence and bioaccumulation potential. Knowledge regarding the toxicity and carcinogenicity of mTCS is limited until now. In this study, the human hepatocyte L02 cells were used to investigate the cellular effects of mTCS under different concentrations (0.1-60 μM). The hormesis effect was observed where a low dose of mTCS (≤5 μM) exposure stimulated the cell proliferation ability, while high-dose exposure (≥20 μM) inhibited cell proliferation. In the same time, low doses of mTCS (0.5 and 1 μM) induced enhanced anchorage-independent proliferation ability and cell migration ability, indicating a positive effect on malignant transformation in L02 cells. Moreover, reactive oxygen species productions were significantly increased after mTCS exposure (≥1 μM), as compared with the control group. Furthermore, expressions of tumor-related genes, mouse double minute 2 (MDM2), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (
