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 present paper provides a summarized identification of critical historical milestones in the discovery of the flawed and corrupt foundations of cancer risk assessment, with particular focus on the LNT Dose Response model. The milestone sequence presented herein is based on a large body of published findings by the author. The history of LNT and cancer response represents what may be the most significant case of scientific misconduct reported in the US, with its revelation severely damaging the scientific credibility and moral authority of leading US regulatory agencies and organizations such as the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) and the journal Science. The consequences of this corrupt history are substantial, affecting cancer risk assessment throughout the world, critical aspects of national economies, the development of critical technologies and public health practices.
