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

Various external and internal factors constantly induce DNA damage, with DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) being the most severe form of damage. DSBs must be repaired rapidly, and failure to repair leads to the development of cancer and other diseases. Here, we show that terahertz (THz) irradiation decreases the amount of DSBs in a frequency-dependent manner. Furthermore, DSBs were increased when samples were heated, indicating that the decrease in DSBs by THz irradiation is a nonthermal effect. The modulation of DNA damage repair by THz irradiation provides a noninvasive method with potential medical applications, such as the prevention and suppression of diseases caused by genomic instability.
