Accuracy of LexisNexis-derived retrospective address histories in the Sister Study cohort.
Article in Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCommercial address data can help reconstruct detailed residential histories, which are crucial for accurate assessment of geospatial-based environmental exposures in epidemiologic studies.
objectiveTo reconstruct and assess the accuracy of pre-baseline residential histories for the Sister Study, an ongoing United States-wide prospective cohort.
methodsWe used LexisNexis® Accruint® to construct pre-baseline residential histories for 47,557 participants. A subset (N = 823) validated their LexisNexis-derived addresses via a supplemental questionnaire. We assessed the proportion of addresses with verified locations and timeframes by sociodemographic and geographic characteristics.
resultsResidential histories were reconstructed for 93.5% of participants, adding a median of 25 years of data. The histories accurately captured 95% of address locations and 82% of residence durations, with improved accuracy after 1990. IMPACT: This study leverages LexisNexis to reconstruct detailed residential histories before cohort enrollment for nearly all Sister Study participants, creating a valuable resource for investigating the health effects of past environmental exposures. A subset of participants verified the locations and timeframes of a high proportion of addresses in the LexisNexis-derived histories, reinforcing confidence in their accuracy for the full cohort.
