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

Haloacetonitriles (HANs) are a class of toxic drinking water disinfection byproducts (DBPs). However, the toxicity mechanisms of HANs remain unclear. We herein investigated the structure-related in vitro toxicity of 6 representative HANs by utilizing complementary bioanalytical approaches. Dibromoacetonitrile (DBAN) displayed strong cytotoxicity and Nrf2 oxidative stress responses, followed by monohalogenated HANs (monoHANs) while other polyhalogenated HANs (polyHANs) exhibited little toxicity. Activity based protein profiling (ABPP) revealed that toxic HANs adduct to human proteome thiols, supporting thiol reactivity as the primary toxicity mechanism for HANs. By using glutathione (GSH) as a thiol surrogate, monoHANs reacted with GSH via S
