Inflammatory effects of hexavalent chromium in the lung: A comprehensive review.
Review in Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Besides smoking, lung cancer can be caused by other factors, including heavy metals such as cadmium, nickel, arsenic, beryllium and hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)], which is used in multiple settings, resulting in widespread environmental and occupational exposures as well as heavy use. The mechanism by which Cr(VI) causes lung cancer is not completely understood. Currently, it is admitted chromosome instability is a key process in the mechanism of Cr(VI)-induced cancer, and previous studies have suggested Cr(VI) impacts the lung tissue in mice by triggering tissue damage and inflammation. However, the mechanism underlying Cr(VI)-induced inflammation and its exact role in lung cancer are unclear. Therefore, this review aimed to systematically examine previous studies assessing Cr(VI)-induced inflammation and to summarize the major inflammatory pathways involved in Cr(VI)-induced inflammation. In cell culture studies, COX2, VEGF, JAK-STAT, leukotriene B4 (LTB4), MAPK, NF-ҡB and Nrf2 signaling pathways were consistently upregulated by Cr(VI), clearly demonstrating that these pathways are involved in Cr(VI)-induced inflammation. In addition, Akt signaling was also shown to contribute to Cr(VI)-induced inflammation, although discrepant findings were reported. Few mechanistic studies were performed in animal models, in which Cr(VI) upregulated oxidative pathways, NF-kB signaling and the MAPK pathway in the lung tissue. Similar to cell culture studies, opposite effects of Cr(VI) on Akt signaling were reported. This work provides insights into the mechanisms by which Cr(VI) induces lung inflammation. However, discrepant findings and other major issues in study design, both in cell and animal models, suggest that further studies are required to unveil the mechanism of Cr(VI)-induced inflammation and its role in lung cancer.
