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

backgroundDeveloping human fetuses may be exposed to the chemical compound bisphenol A (BPA), and retinoic acid (RA) has been detected at low levels in water sources. RA signaling regulates key developmental genes and is essential for organ development, including the brain. We previously reported that RA/BPA coexposure of mouse embryonic stem cells potentiates RA signaling, which warrants further investigation.

objectiveThis study was undertaken in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and zebrafish embryos to investigate whether coexposure to BPA and exogenous RA could potentiate

methodsHuman iPSCs and zebrafish embryos were exposed to exogenous RA (0, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 100, 200 or

resultsIn both iPSCs and zebrafish, RA/BPA coexposure had higher expression of 3'

conclusionOur findings suggest a mechanistic link between chemical exposure and neurodevelopmental impairments and demonstrate involvement of exogenous RA signaling in endocrine disruption. Further investigation is needed to explore why BPA alone did not affect endogenous RA signaling, whereas exogenous RA signaling was potentiated with RA/BPA coexposure. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP15574.
