Association between acrylamide exposure and the odds of developmental disabilities in children: A cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The association between acrylamide exposure and the odds of developmental disabilities (DDs) is unclear. We conducted this analysis to explore whether acrylamide exposure is related to DDs. Methods: We analyzed a sample of 1,140 children aged 6-17 years old from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014 to 2015-2016. DDs were determined by reports of parents. Acrylamide exposure was evaluated by the hemoglobin adducts of acrylamide (HbAA) and its major metabolite glycidamide (HbGA). We investigated the association using binomial logistic regression analysis by taking HbAA and HbGA as continuous or quartile variables. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to explore the non-linear relationship between HbAA or HbGA and the odds of DDs. Interaction analysis and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to validate the results. Results: A total of 134 participants were reported to have DDs. The median level of HbAA and HbGA was 41.6 and 40.5 pmol/g Hb, respectively. HbAA and HbGA were not associated with the odds of DDs when taken as continuous variables. When divided into quartiles, there was no evidence for a linear trend for HbAA and HbGA. RCS showed that there was a J-shaped association between HbGA and the odds of DDs ( Conclusion: HbGA level was associated with the odds of DDs in a J-shaped manner among children. Further investigation is warranted to determine the causality and underlying mechanisms.
