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 widespread use of graphene oxide-silver nanoparticle nanocomposites (GO-AgNPs) in biomedical sciences is increasing the chances of human and animal exposure to its chronic non-toxic doses. Exposure to AgNPs-related nanomaterials may result in the negative effect on the dam, fetus and offspring. However, there are only little available information for profound understanding of the epigenetic alteration in the cells and animals caused by low-dose chronic exposure of GO-AgNPs. The present study investigated the effect of 0.5 μg/mL GO-AgNPs for 10 weeks on the differential expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in caprine fetal fibroblast cells (CFFCs), and this dose of GO-AgNPs did not affect cell viability and ROS level. We predicted the functions of those differentially expressed (DE) circRNAs in CFFCs by bioinformatics analysis. Furthermore, we validated the expression of ten DE circRNAs using quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) to ensure the reliability of the sequencing data. Our results showed that the DE circRNAs may potentially regulate the GO-AgNPs-inducing epigenetic toxicity through a regulatory network consisted of circRNAs, miRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Therefore, the epigenetics toxicity is essential to assess the biosafety level of GO-AgNPs.
