Effects of Environmental Cadmium Exposure Sufficient to Induce Renal Tubular Dysfunction on Bone Mineral Density Among Female Farmers in Cadmium-Polluted Areas in Northern Japan.
Article in Toxics, 2025. 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
In the Japanese Multi-Centered Environmental Toxicant Study (JMETS) conducted in five areas across Japan, we demonstrated that bone mineral density (BMD) in female farmers without renal tubular dysfunction was not adversely affected by exposure to low to moderate levels of cadmium (Cd). We then expanded JMETS to the most Cd-polluted area in northern Japan, Akita prefecture, with area A as the control and areas B and C as Cd-polluted areas (Cd exposure levels: B < C), which also covered more female farmers with a wider age range (20-82 years) and Cd exposure sufficient to induce renal tubular dysfunction. We selected 1267 eligible subjects in the three areas and classified them by age and menstrual status. The distribution of blood and urinary Cd levels over the areas was A < B < C (blood Cd: 2.10, 3.78, and 3.39 µg/L, and urinary Cd: 3.02, 4.29, and 6.15 µg/g cr., respectively;
