Role of cyanotoxins in the development and promotion of cancer.
Review in Toxicology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Cyanotoxins are primarily produced by different species of cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, and have appeared to be environmental poisons that have various toxic effects on animal health, including humans. Cyanotoxins have been linked to the development and promotion of multiple cancers in recent studies. Important cyanotoxins, such as microcystins, nodularins, and cylindrospermopsin, have been found to play significant roles in developing and promoting various cancers. These toxins are generally responsible for oxidative stress, DNA damage, and disrupt cellular signaling pathways thus the development of cancers in various cells. Cancer is a multistep process caused by multiple mutations in normal cells. Microcystin-LR inhibits protein phosphatases (PP1 and PP2A), which leads to abnormal cell proliferation and tumor development. Similar inhibition of PP1 and PP2A is shown by nodularin, and in fact, their mechanism of carcinogenesis is the same as that of microcystins to
