Bisphenols, Toxic Elements, and Potentially Toxic Elements in Ready-to-Eat Fish and Meat Foods and Their Associated Risks for Human Health.
Article in Toxics, 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
In this study, simultaneous exposure to bisphenols and toxic and potentially toxic elements from the consumption of ready-to-eat foods was assessed. In total, 120 different ready-to-eat foods purchased in different Sicilian supermarkets and online shops were analysed. BPA was detected in most of the analysed foods. Statistical analysis was performed, differentiating the samples according to geographical origin and packaging type. Good separation between European and non-European samples could be observed, with the former being characterised by lower levels of Cd and Pb, while the latter showed the highest concentrations of Pb and Cd, followed by Mn and Fe. The calculated estimated weekly intake (EWI) was well below the intake levels recommended by regulatory agencies, indicating that ready-to-eat foods can be safely consumed at expected dietary levels. However, the recently established tolerable daily intake (TDI) for BPA increases the risk quotient values to >1, indicating a risk to the consumer.
