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

Conventional physiological research has focused on elucidating the endogenous mechanisms that underly the adaptations of species to life in extreme habitats, such as polar regions or deserts. In this review article, we argue that even habitats that are not considered extremes are facing unpredictable, rapid, and strong modifications due to human activities that expose animals to novel extreme conditions. Thus, physiological research on these animals can offer insight on the role of physiological plasticity in driving their resilience and adaptation. To this end, we discuss how stress physiology (with a particular focus on oxidative stress) has a central role in mediating the interaction between the exposome (measure of all the environmental exposures of an individual in a lifetime) and cellular processes (bio-exposome) in the contexts of relevant extreme anthropogenic changes to the habitat conditions. We also provide concrete examples on the relationship between oxidative stress and the bio-exposome in free-living animals, and how this research can be relevant to human health. Finally, we propose future research directions integrating the bio-exposome and the One Health framework to achieve a holistic understanding of the proximate mechanisms underlying individual responses to extreme anthropogenic environmental changes.
