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

Tioxazafen is an effective nematicide whose commercialization was halted because handlers reportedly developed rashes after working with seeds coated with a tioxazafen-laced cocktail. Here, we show that tioxazafen is bioactivated into toxic products by nematode and human cytochrome P450s. Through systematic analyses, we found that bioactivated tioxazafen disrupts proteasome function, leading to the accumulation of the NRF1 transcription factor ortholog SKN-1A in the nematode
