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

Copper oxide Nanoparticles (CuONPs) are used in different agricultural applications. Large amounts of CuONPs cause organ dysfunction in animals. Our study aim to compare between the toxic effects of CuONanSphere (CuONSp) and CuONanoFlower (CuONF) as new nano-pesticides, determine a less toxic form when used in agricultural applications. To characterize CuONSp and CuONF, we used X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Zeta-sizer device.18 adult male albino rats were divided into three groups (n = 6), (I) control group, (II) and (III) groups were given orally 50 mg/kg/day of CuONSp and CuONF 30 days respectively. CuONSp induced oxidant-antioxidant abnormalities, including an increase in malondialdhyde (MDA) and a decrease in glutathione (GSH) in comparison to CuONF-treated one. CuONSp induced an increase in liver enzymes activities compared to CuONF. Tumour necrosis factor-alfa (TNF-α) detected an increased in liver and lung compared to CuONF. However, histological examinations revealed changes in CuONSp group than CuONF group. Changes in immune-expressions of TNF-α, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kβ) and tumour suppressor gene (p53) were also more identified in CuONSp group than CuONF group. Ultrastructural studies of liver and lung tissues marked alternations were observed in CuONSp group than CuONF group. In conclusion, CuONSp induced biological alternation in liver and lung more than CuONF. So, CuONF is less toxic compared to CuONSp when used as nano-pesticide in agricultural applications.
