Comparative anatomy of respiratory bronchioles and lobular structures in mammals.
Review in Journal of toxicologic pathology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Rodents are widely used to study the toxicity of chemicals; however, differences between species indicate that the results from rodents are not always directly transferable to humans. The health of workers exposed to various chemicals and particulates at high doses or for long periods is at risk. Respiratory bronchioles and lobular structures, which are demarcated by interlobular septa, are key sites for occupational lung diseases such as pneumoconiosis; however, these structures vary among animal species. Understanding these differences is crucial for studying the pathology of human occupational lung diseases. However, there is a lack of reviews focusing on these structures in different species. This review explores the lung anatomy of various mammals and its functional importance in disease to connect animal studies with human occupational lung diseases. Our results indicate that artiodactyls, especially small pig breeds and goats, are ideal for research because their respiratory bronchioles and lobular structures are similar to those of humans. This review aims to enhance the use of experimental animal data and improve our understanding of human occupational lung diseases, thereby facilitating early disease detection, treatment, and prevention.
