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

131I is recognised, both for its significance in nuclear medicine, and for its association with a rise in paediatric but not adult thyroid cancer cases following the Chornobyl accident. However, the detailed radiobiological mechanisms underlying 131I effects on the thyroid remain unknown to date. In the present study, 1 kBq or 100 kBq 131I was administered to mice that were euthanised after 48 h, 3 weeks or 6 months. Thyroid glands were surgically removed, and proteins were extracted and analysed by tandem mass spectrometry. On a group-level, the results showed few alterations in protein abundance, mainly linked to RNA metabolism and DNA damage response. However, individual analysis of protein abundance changes in each animal showed distinct findings suggesting inhibited proliferation in a few individuals across various exposure levels and time points. Future studies should involve larger animal groups to better assess the frequency and variability of proteomic radiation responses.
