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

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have raised increasing concern due to their potential effects on reproductive health. This review focuses on the impact of EDCs, particularly bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogues, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), on domestic ruminants (cattle and sheep) by integrating findings from both in vitro and in vivo studies. The analysis highlights how exposure to EDCs affects steroidogenesis, oxidative stress responses, apoptosis, epigenetic regulation, and overall fertility markers, such as oocyte maturation, sperm motility, and embryo developmental competence. While most data originate from in vitro bovine studies, in vivo research in sheep offers valuable insights. Importantly, given the potential for EDCs to bioaccumulate in animal tissues, these findings hold significant implications for animal health, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and fertility rates.
