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

backgroundBisphenol A (BPA) is known to be biologically active in experimental models even at low levels of exposure. However, its impact on endometrial cancer remains unclear.

objectivesThis study aimed to investigate whether lifelong exposure to different doses of BPA induced uterine abnormalities and molecular changes in a rat model.

methodsSprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 5 doses of BPA [0, 25, 250, 2,500, or

resultsBased on the analysis of the combined effects of all testing outcomes (including immunohistological, morphological, and estrous cycle data) in a semiblinded fashion, using statistical models, DISCUSSION: Lifelong exposure of rats to low-dose BPA at 25 and
