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

Redox stress induces DNA mutations that contribute to chronic conditions affecting human health and to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Yet, the impact of redox stress-induced mutagenesis remains difficult to decipher because redox agents are diverse and produce hard-to-detect mutational outcomes. Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) provides a useful tool for studying mutagenic effects of redox agents, as it is particularly susceptible to damage and cannot be repaired by most DNA repair pathways. Here, we established a protocol to investigate redox stress-induced mutagenesis based on the
