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

Pregnant Wistar rats were given butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) at a dose of 2.0% in the diet on days 0-20, days 0-11 or days 11-20 of pregnancy. Food consumption and body weight gain were decreased in pregnant rats given BBP. Pre-implantation loss in the BBP-treated groups was comparable to that in the control and pair-fed groups. All dams given BBP on days 0-20 or days 0-11 exhibited complete resorption of all the implanted embryos. No increase in post-implantation loss was found in pregnant rats given BBP on days 11-20. Marked teratogenicity was detected in fetuses of the dams given BBP on days 11-20. Cleft palate and fusion of the sternebrae were predominantly observed. Seventy-two of the 134 fetuses had a cleft palate. The incidence of malformations in this group was significantly and markedly higher than that in the control and pair-fed groups. In conclusion, the administration of BBP during the first and second half of pregnancy produced embryolethality and teratogenicity, respectively.
