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

The distribution and bioaccumulation of environmental pollutants are essential to understanding their toxicological mechanism. However, achieving spatial resolution at the subtissue level is still challenging. Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent environmental pollutant with widespread occurrence. The bioaccumulation behavior of PFOS is complicated by its dual affinity for phospholipids and protein albumin. It is intriguing to visualize the distribution preference of PFOS and investigate the differential microenvironment responses at a subtissue level. Herein, we developed a mass-spectrometry (MS)-based spatial multiomics workflow, integrating matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization MS imaging, laser microdissection, and liquid chromatography MS analysis. This integrated workflow elucidates the spatial distribution of PFOS in mouse cardiac tissue, highlighting its preferential accumulation in the pericardium over the myocardium. This distribution pattern results in greater toxicity to the pericardium, significantly altering cardiolipin levels and disrupting energy metabolism and lipid transport pathways. Our integrated approach provides novel insights into the bioaccumulation behavior of PFOS and demonstrates significant potential for revealing complex molecular mechanisms underlying the health impacts of environmental pollutants.
