Cytotoxic effects of ivermectin on
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Methods: This study investigated the cytotoxic effects of ivermectin (IVM) on Results: Our findings demonstrate that IVM induces dose-dependent cytotoxicity and triggers cell death pathways. We found that IVM treatment generates elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), DNA fragmentation, and arrests of trophozoites in the cell cycle's S phase. Additionally, ultrastructural analysis reveals morphological alterations consistent with apoptosis, such as cytoplasmic vacuolization, chromatin condensation, and tubulin distribution. Discussion: The insights gained from this study may contribute to developing new therapeutic strategies against giardiasis, addressing the challenge posed by drug-resistant strains.
