Low-dose X-Ray induced genetic damage in human peripheral blood lymphocytes.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
X-rays (XR) are electromagnetic waves capable of inducing significant biological effects in living organisms. Although widely used in medicine and industry, the impact of low-dose XR exposure on human health remains insufficiently characterized. XR can generate direct and indirect DNA damage such as single- and double-strand breaks, base modifications, and DNA-protein crosslinks, leading to chromosomal alterations that disrupt cellular homeostasis and may contribute to disease development. Although previous studies have reported general increases in cytogenetic damage at low exposures, they seldom provide detailed descriptions of which chromosomes are most affected, which structural or numerical alterations predominate, or how frequently each alteration occurs. This study aimed to characterize the type and frequency of chromosomal alterations and the spectrum of genetic damage, including both clonal and non-clonal alterations, in human lymphocytes exposed
