The GeoTox Package: open-source software for connecting spatiotemporal exposure to individual and population-level risk.
Article in Human genomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundComprehensive environmental risk characterization, encompassing physical, chemical, social, ecological, and lifestyle stressors, necessitates innovative approaches to handle the escalating complexity. This is especially true when considering individual and population-level diversity, where the myriad combinations of real-world exposures magnify the combinatoric challenges. The GeoTox framework offers a tractable solution by integrating geospatial exposure data from source-to-outcome in a series of modular, interconnected steps.
resultsHere, we introduce the GeoTox open-source R software package for characterizing the risk of perturbing molecular targets involved in adverse human health outcomes based on exposure to spatially-referenced stressor mixtures. We demonstrate its usage in building computational workflows that incorporate individual and population-level diversity. Our results demonstrate the applicability of GeoTox for individual and population-level risk assessment, highlighting its capacity to capture the complex interplay of environmental stressors on human health.
conclusionsThe GeoTox package represents a significant advancement in environmental risk characterization, providing modular software to facilitate the application and further development of the GeoTox framework for quantifying the relationship between environmental exposures and health outcomes. By integrating geospatial methods with cutting-edge exposure and toxicological frameworks, GeoTox offers a robust tool for assessing individual and population-level risks from environmental stressors.
