Urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine levels and small-for-gestational age infants: a prospective cohort study from the Japan Environment and Children's Study.
Article in BMJ open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectivesTo evaluate the association between the urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (U8-OHdG) levels and the incidence of small-for-gestational age (SGA) infants and to assess the utility of U8-OHdG as a biomarker to predict the incidence of SGA infants.
designProspective cohort study.
settingThe Japan Environment and Children's Study.
participantsData of participants enrolled in the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a nationwide birth cohort study, between 2011 and 2014 were analysed; 104 062 fetal records were analysed. Data of women with singleton pregnancies ≥22 weeks of gestation were analysed. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: U8-OHdG levels were assessed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Participants were categorised into the following three groups according to the quartile of the distribution of U8-OHdG: low U8-OHdG (<1.95 ng/mgCre), moderate U8-OHdG (the combined second and third quartiles; 1.95-2.95 ng/mgCre) and high U8-OHdG (>2.95 ng/mgCre) groups. Additionally, participants in the 90th percentile for U8-OHdG levels were analysed. Odds ratios (ORs) for SGA infants (<-1.5 and <-2.0 SD) were calculated using a logistic regression model while adjusting for confounding factors; the moderate U8-OHdG group was used as a reference. The cut-off value of U8-OHdG to predict the incidence of SGA infants was calculated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
resultsData of 80 212 participants were analysed. The adjusted ORs for SGA infants (<-1.5 and<-2.0 SD) in the high U8-OHdG group were 1.16 (95% CI 1.07 to 1.25) and 1.22 (95% CI 1.07 to 1.38). The cut-off value of U8-OHdG (3.26 ng/mgCre) showed a poor ability to predict SGA infants (sensitivity, 21.9%; specificity, 83.6%; area under the ROC curve, 0.530).
conclusionsElevated U8-OHdG levels were associated with an increased incidence of SGA infants. However, this parameter would not be a useful screening tool for predicting SGA infants owing to its low sensitivity and specificity.
