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

Our recent study revealed that continuous prenatal low-dose-rate irradiation did not induce cellular changes in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus in male B6C3F1 mice exposed to gamma rays during prenatal development. However, changes in body weight, body mass index (BMI), locomotor ability, and mRNA and miRNA expressions in the hippocampus and blood were observed. To investigate potential sex differences in the effects of prenatal gamma irradiation, we conducted a parallel study on female B6C3F1 mice. The results showed significant reductions in the weight of the lungs and left kidney in prenatally irradiated female offspring, accompanied by significantly increased fat deposits in the mesentery, retroperitoneal, and left perigonadal areas. Despite these systemic changes, no cellular alterations were observed in the subgranular zone (immature neurons) or the hilus of the dentate gyrus (mature neurons and glial cells, including astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells). However, significant increases in hippocampal mRNA expression were detected for genes such as
