Distribution of Pb and Se in mouse brain following subchronic Pb exposure by using synchrotron X-ray fluorescence.
Article in Neurotoxicology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Lead (Pb) is a well-known neurotoxicant and environmental hazard. Recent experimental evidence has linked Pb exposure with neurological deterioration leading to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. To understand brain regional distribution of Pb and its interaction with other metal ions, we used synchrotron micro-x-ray fluorescence technique (μ-XRF) to map the metal distribution pattern and to quantify metal concentrations in mouse brains. Lead-exposed mice received oral gavage of Pb acetate once daily for 4 weeks; the control mice received sodium acetate. Brain tissues were cut into slices and subjected for analysis. Synchrotron μ-XRF scans were run on the PETRA III P06 beamline (DESY). Coarse scans of the entire brain were performed to locate the cortex and hippocampus, after which scans with higher resolution were run in these areas. The results showed that: a) the total Pb intensity in Pb-exposed brain slices was significantly higher than in control brain; b) Pb typically deposited in localized particles of <10 um
