Association between urinary cadmium concentrations and liver function in adolescents.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Evidence from previous studies has shown that exposure to cadmium (Cd) is associated with cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and osteoporosis, but the effects of Cd on liver toxicity in adolescents are unclear. The data of 4411 adolescents who participated in the US The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) during 1999-2016 was analyzed. Liver function was indicated by the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate amino transferase (AST). The associations between the levels of urinary Cd and liver function were evaluated using multivariate logistic regression models adjusted for covariates. The results showed that the odds ratios of ALT and AST in the highest quartiles of urinary Cd were 1.40 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-1.82) and 1.64 (95% CI, 1.10-2.44), respectively, compared with the lowest quartiles, which were similar to using urinary creatinine as the covariate. We also found linear regression of associations of urinary Cd with elevated ALT and AST levels in boys. In addition, one augmented urinary Cd concentration unit (Log
