Associations between mixtures of urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations and oxidative stress biomarkers among couples undergoing fertility treatment.
Article in Environmental research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Phthalate exposure has been associated with adverse reproductive outcomes and oxidative stress is a potential mechanism by which they act. However, few human studies have explored co-exposure confounding or joint effects. Furthermore, most studies examine associations between biomarkers of exposure and oxidative stress from the same urine sample. We investigated single-exposure, co-exposure-adjusted, and joint associations between phthalate metabolites and oxidative stress in the Environment and Reproductive Health (EARTH) study among couples undergoing fertility treatment. We examined cross-sectional associations in both women and men, and longitudinal associations in women. Urine was collected in the follicular phase (women only) and at the time of fertility procedure (women and men), and analyzed for 11 phthalate metabolites. Urine from the time of fertility procedure was analyzed for oxidative stress biomarkers, including free 8-iso-prostaglandin F
