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

The analysis of genotoxicity assays has long posed a major challenge for the standardization of analyses in environmental and occupational settings, as well as in assessing health impacts across various diseases. In this context, we present a mobile application designed to facilitate and standardize scoring in micronucleus, comet, chromosomal aberration, and erythrocyte abnormality assays. The app offers a portable and intuitive interface that allows users to save, resume, and share counting sessions efficiently, supporting both laboratory and field settings. By digitizing the workflow, it enhances data organization, traceability, and time management while preserving the rigor of microscopic analysis. Its adoption offers a practical and reliable alternative to manual tallying, contributing to the evolution of genotoxicity testing practices through mobile technology.
