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

When volatile organic compounds are handled in multi-well plates, their volatilization is known to affect non-treated wells in the plate. In this paper, we report two cases in which the HaloTag ligand 6-chlorohexan-1-ol and formaldehyde were volatilized and transferred to other wells in a multi-well plate. We found that competition between the HaloTag-targeting PROTAC and 6-chlorohexan-1-ol affected the other wells of the plate. A multifaceted analysis revealed that this phenomenon resulted from well-to-well transfer of 6-chlorohexan-1-ol into untreated wells on the plate. In addition, the formaldehyde used for cell fixation was toxic to cells in the surrounding wells. Therefore, even these reagents, which are widely used in life science research, require careful handling in multi-well plates.
