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

Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are among the most widely commercialized nanomaterials globally, with applications in medicine and the food industry. Consequently, the increased use of AgNP in the food industry has led to an unavoidable rise  in human exposure to these nanoparticles. Their widespread use raises concerns about potential hazards to human health, specifically their intestinal pro-inflammatory effects. Thus, the main objective of this study was to evaluate the biological effects of two subacute doses of 5 nm polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-AgNP in C57BL/6J mice. One mg/kg body weight or 10 mg/kg bw was provided once a day for 14 days, using a new technology (HaPILLness) that allows voluntary, stress-free, and accurate oral dosing. It was observed that after oral ingestion, while AgNP is biodistributed throughout the entire organism, most of the ingested dose is excreted in the feces. The passage and accumulation of AgNP throughout the intestine instigated a prominent inflammatory response, marked by significant histological, vascular, and cellular transformations. This response was driven by the activation of the nuclear factor-кB (NF-кB) inflammatory pathway, ultimately leading to the generation of multiple cytokines and chemokines.
