1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGestational exposure to phthalates, endocrine disrupting chemicals widely used in consumer products, has been associated with poor recognition memory in infancy. Oxidative stress may represent one pathway linking this association. Hence, we examined whether exposure to phthalates was associated with elevated oxidative stress during pregnancy, and whether oxidative stress mediates the relationship between phthalate exposure and recognition memory.

methodsOur analysis included a subset of mother-child pairs enrolled in the Illinois Kids Development Study (IKIDS, N = 225, recruitment years 2013-2018). Concentrations of 12 phthalate metabolites were quantified in 2nd trimester urine samples. Four oxidative stress biomarkers (8-isoprostane-PGF

resultsThe average maternal age at delivery was 31 years and approximately 50 % of participants had a graduate degree. A natural log unit increase in ΣAA, ΣDINP, and ΣDEHP was associated with a statistically significant increase in 8-isoPGF

conclusionsGestational exposure to some phthalates is positively associated with oxidative stress biomarkers, highlighting one mechanistic pathway through which these chemicals may impair early cognitive development.
