Epigenetic dysregulation of H19/IGF2 in hepatic cells exposed to toxic metal mixtures in vitro.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Exposure to mixtures of toxic metals is known to cause adverse health effects through epigenetic alterations. Here we aimed to examine the unexplored area of aberrant DNA methylation in the H19/IGF2 domain following combined toxic metal exposure. An in vitro epigenotoxicity assay using the human normal liver epithelial cell line THLE-3 was conducted. When THLE-3 cells were exposed to specific concentrations of either organic arsenic or MeHgCl, an increase in the H19 lncRNA levels and a marked reduction in the IGF2 mRNA levels were observed. In contrast, combined exposures coupled with CdCl
