Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 prevents oxidative DNA damage in intestinal epithelial cells induced by genotoxic Escherichia coli NC101.
Article in Redox biology, 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
backgroundApurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a multifunctional protein that regulates host responses to oxidative stress. We investigated its role in controlling DNA damage following infection with a genotoxic intestinal microbe.
methodsMice rendered hypomorphic for APE1 were crossed with tamoxifen (TMX)-inducible or constitutive Vil1ACre mice to yield intestinal epithelial cell-targeted knockout mice (Apex1
resultsAPE1 expression was markedly diminished in enterocytes of Apex1
conclusionsAPE1 protects epithelial cells by inhibiting the accumulation of ROS and oxidative DNA damage induced by intestinal bacteria, including the colibactin produced by E. coli NC101.
