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

Tobacco smoke delivers a complex mixture of hazardous and potentially hazardous chemicals. Some of these may induce the formation of DNA mutations, which increases the risk of various cancers that display characteristic patterns of accumulated mutations arising from the causative exposures. Tracking the contributions of individual mutagens to mutational signatures present in human cancers can help understand cancer etiology and advance disease prevention strategies. To characterize the potential contributions of individual constituents of tobacco smoke to tobacco exposure-associated mutational signatures, we first assessed the toxic potential of 13 tobacco-relevant compounds by determining their impact on the viability of a human bronchial lung epithelial cell line (BEAS-2B). Experimentally derived high-resolution mutational profiles were characterized for the seven most potent compounds by sequencing the genomes of clonally expanded mutants that arose after exposure to the individual chemicals. Analogous to the classification of mutagenic processes on the basis of signatures from human cancers, we extracted mutational signatures from the mutant clones. We confirmed the formation of previously characterized benzo[
