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

Comparative chemical hazard assessment, which compares hazards for several endpoints across several chemicals, can be used for a variety of purposes including alternatives assessment and the prioritization of chemicals for further assessment. A new framework was developed to compile and integrate chemical hazard data for several human health and ecotoxicity endpoints from public online sources including hazardous chemical lists, Globally Harmonized System hazard codes (H-codes) or hazard categories from government health agencies, experimental quantitative toxicity values, and predicted values using Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models. QSAR model predictions were obtained using EPA's Toxicity Estimation Software Tool. Java programming was used to download hazard data, convert data from each source into a consistent score record format, and store the data in a database. Scoring criteria based on the EPA's Design for the Environment Program Alternatives Assessment Criteria for Hazard Evaluation were used to determine ordinal hazard scores (i.e., low, medium, high, or very high) for each score record. Different methodologies were assessed for integrating data from multiple sources into one score for each hazard endpoint for each chemical. The chemical hazard assessment (CHA) Database developed in this study currently contains more than 990,000 score records for more than 85,000 chemicals. The CHA Database and the methods used in its development may contribute to several cheminformatics, public health, and environmental activities.
