Melatonin and MitoEbselen-2 Are Radioprotective Agents to Mitochondria.
Article in Genes, 2022. 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
Mitochondria are responsible for controlling cell death during the early stages of radiation exposure, but their perturbations are associated with late effects of radiation-related carcinogenesis. Therefore, it is important to protect mitochondria to mitigate the harmful effects of radiation throughout life. The glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme is essential for the maintenance of mitochondrial-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. However, radiation inactivates the GPx, resulting in metabolic oxidative stress and prolonged cell injury in irradiated normal human fibroblasts. Here, we used the GPx activator
