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

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide. Long-term exposure to low levels of CPF is associated with neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. The mechanisms leading to these effects are still not fully understood. Normal NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function is essential for neuronal development and higher brain functionality, while its inappropriate stimulation results in neurological deficits. Thus, the current study aimed to investigate the role of NMDARs in CPF-induced neurotoxicity. We show that NMDARs mediate CPF-induced excitotoxicity in differentiated human fetal cortical neuronal ReNcell CX stem cells. In addition, by using two-electrode voltage clamp electrophysiology of
