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

Purpose of Review: This paper examines how deep-space conditions in the Artemis program, including radiation, microgravity, and other stressors affect genomic stability in blood-forming cells, with a focus on clonal hematopoiesis and sex-specific differences in DNA repair and mutation risk. Recent Findings: Studies show space conditions promote mutations in hematopoietic stem cells, with sex-specific effects: males are more vulnerable to Y chromosome loss and structural damage, while females may experience increased epigenetic instability despite protective redundancy from the X chromosome; these risks are amplified by combined stressors like radiation, oxidative stress, and circadian disruption. Summary: Sex chromosome differences play a key role in radiation-induced mutations and clonal expansion, highlighting the need for personalized, sex-specific medical monitoring and countermeasures rather than a uniform approach for astronauts on long-duration missions.
