Assessing the Application of Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Models in Acute Chemical Incidents.
Article in Journal of xenobiotics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Chemical release incidents in the United States involve hazardous chemicals that can harm nearby communities. A historical tracking of these chemical release incidents from 1991 to 2014 across up to 16 states has been conducted by The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), utilizing the Hazardous Substances Emergency Events Surveillance (HSEES) and the National Toxic Substance Incidents Program (NTSIP) systems. By analyzing surveillance data, patterns of these different chemical releases can be identified to develop and construct a health-protective course of action. Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models can simulate chemical exposures during acute chemical incidents. For a retrospective study of an acute chemical release in 2012, we examined the components necessary to integrate PBPK-modeled exposure assessments in ATSDR's Assessment of Chemical Exposure (ACE) program. We focused on data from a published investigation of vinyl chloride (VC) exposure to assess the utility of PBPK in evaluating exposures among residential populations near the release site. The initial estimate from the real-time air monitoring at the release site revealed that air levels greatly exceeded the Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGL) of 1200 ppm, with PBPK models predicting corresponding VC blood levels of 3.17 mg/L. "Real-time" and "after-action" air modeling estimated VC levels at various distances from the release site over time. PBPK modeling provided insight into possible residential blood levels of VC over several days following the incident. These findings indicate that PBPK modeling could be valuable for reconstructing exposure scenarios associated with acute chemical releases.
