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

A representative congener of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in the environment, 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47), is associated with male reproductive toxicity, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. In this study, mice were administered environmentally relevant concentrations of BDE-47 for six weeks. Histopathological observations showed that BDE-47 induced inflammatory reactions and damaged the testes. By conducting an integrated proteomic and metabolomic analysis coupled with a bioinformatic analysis using ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) methods, we found that BDE-47 mainly affected the molecules involved in free radical scavenging, cell death and survival, neurological disease, and inflammatory response. IPA canonical pathways showed inflammatory and apoptosis pathways, including hepatic fibrosis/hepatic stellate cell activation, the GP6 signaling pathway, tight junction signaling, acute phase response signaling, LXR/RXR activation, unfolded protein response, and FXR/RXR activation, which are related to male reproductive toxicity. Key transcriptional regulator networks were activated via a focus on upstream regulator analysis. The expression of
