Alizarin Dye: Toxicity, Genotoxicity, and Histopathological Alterations in Model Organisms.
Article in Environmental and molecular mutagenesis, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Alizarin is an anthraquinone red dye from natural or synthetic sources, widely used in textiles. Effluents of this activity can contain residual dyes, which may contaminate the aquatic environment. Studies report alizarin's aquatic toxicity, mutagenic, and carcinogenic effects. This study aimed to complement the aquatic toxicity evaluation and confirm its ability to cause genotoxicity in alternative models. Acute toxicity was performed with crustaceans, mussels, and fish embryos, while chronic toxicity was assessed in algae. Light effects on toxicity were evaluated using Daphnia similis. Histopathological effects on the gonads of Mytilus galloprovincialis and somatic mutations and sperm genotoxicity in Parhyale hawaiensis were investigated. Mutagenicity was confirmed using a miniaturized Ames test. The effect concentration 50% (EC
