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

Introduction: Urothelial carcinoma (UC) in pet dogs closely resembles human muscle-invasive UC, which is associated with environmental chemical carcinogens. The aim of this study was to determine whether urinary concentrations of the bladder carcinogens acrolein, inorganic arsenic, and 2,6-dimethylaniline (2,6-DMA) reach genotoxic concentrations in pet dogs with and without UC. Methods: We first established thresholds for DNA damage from these chemicals using a novel Results: For acrolein, we found a genotoxic threshold of 20 uM for combined DNA strand breaks and oxidative DNA damage. These findings suggest potentially genotoxic urinary acrolein exposures in 20% of pet dogs (15 of 74) previously surveyed, with no differences between cases and controls. For inorganic arsenic, we observed genotoxicity at 20 uM in canine organoids; none of 74 pet dogs reached this urinary concentration when assayed at a single time point. For 2,6-DMA, the genotoxic threshold was 0.01 uM for combined DNA strand breaks and oxidative DNA damage. Among dogs previously surveyed, 8% of UC cases (3 of 37) and none of 36 controls reached this threshold ( Conclusion: Acrolein and 2,6-DMA could reach genotoxic urinary concentrations after household exposures in some pet dogs, and the role of 2,6-DMA in canine bladder cancer risk deserves assessment in a larger sample size.
