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

Ionizing radiation (IR) damage, whether intentional, accidental, or therapeutic, reverberates throughout the body. The FDA has approved the use of palliative care and leukocyte growth factors for hematologic depletion (H-ARS), but no treatments have been approved for gastrointestinal damage (GI-ARS). Synthetic PIF (sPIF) safely replicates endogenous PIF's preventative, reparatory, and regenerative effects. Specifically relevant for radiation-induced damage, sPIF reduces oxidative stress. Subcutaneous (SC) sPIF prevents LD100/30 mortality at 2 w post-treatment and restores GI function post-6Gy exposure (in mice). Daily SC sPIF for 14 d, starting 24 h post-LD85/40 (7.17 Gy) total-body ɣ-irradiation (TBI), increases survival 2.76-fold (14.7% (5/34) to 40.7% (24/59);
