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

Trichloroethylene (TCE) is an organic solvent with various industrial applications. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the effects of TCE on cytotoxicity, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, global histone modifications, and regulation in microRNAs (miRNAs) related to cancer pathways in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293) after exposure to TCE at concentrations of 0.03, 0.1, and 0.3 mM for 24 h. Results indicated that TCE caused dose- dependent cytotoxicity without induction of significant apoptosis or ROS production at concentrations of ≤ 0.3 mM. Upregulation in myc, pten, and mgmt and downregulation in ctnb1, cd44, and cdkn2a genes involved in cell cycle regulation and proliferation were detected. TCE decreased the expression of the ezh2 gene and increased the expression of riz1 and hat1 genes, which are associated with chromatin-modifying enzymes. Additionally, the levels of H3K27me3, H3K4me3, and H3K9me3 changed significantly. However, the alterations in global levels of H3K9ac were insignificant. TCE significantly altered the expression of approximately 25% of miRNAs related to cancer pathway in the miRNA array panel, as it upregulated 19 miRNAs and downregulated 4 miRNAs of the tested 84 miRNAs. Considering the effects on chromatin modification, proliferation rate, and miRNAs, it can be concluded that these mechanisms may be involved in TCE-induced nephrotoxicity.
