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

Diphenylarsinic acid (DPAA), a neurotoxic organic arsenical, is present in groundwater and soil in some regions of Japan owing to illegal dumping. The present study evaluated the potential carcinogenicity of DPAA, including investigating whether bile duct hyperplasia in the liver that was observed in a chronic study on 52 week mouse, develops into a tumor when administered to mice in their drinking water for 78 weeks. DPAA was administered to 4 groups of male and female C57BL/6J mice at concentrations of 0, 6.25, 12.5, and 25 ppm in drinking water for 78 weeks. A significant decrease in the survival rate was found for females in the 25 ppm DPAA group. Body weights of males in the 25 ppm and females in the 12.5 and 25 ppm DPAA groups were significantly lower than those of the controls. Histopathological evaluation of neoplasms in all tissues showed no significant increase in tumor incidence in any organ or tissue of 6.25, 12.5, or 25 ppm DPAA-treated male or female mice. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that DPAA is not carcinogenic to male or female C57BL/6J mice. Taken together with the fact that the toxic effect of DPAA is predominantly restricted to the central nervous system in humans, and the finding that DPAA was not carcinogenic in a previous 104-week rat carcinogenicity study, our results suggest that DPAA is unlikely to be carcinogenic in humans.
