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

Potato chips (chips, UK crisps) are one of the popular snacks, particularly among children and teenagers. Chips are prone to acrylamide (AA) formation, as a suspected carcinogen. In the present study, an in-house sample preparation procedure and liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method were developed and validated to monitor AA in 113 potato chip samples from Iranian brands during two periods: 2016-2017 and 2020-2021. AA risk assessment was performed by applying conventional and new approaches, using the calculations of Target Hazard Quotient (THQ), source related Hazard Quotient (HQs), Incremental Lifetime Cancer Risk (ILCR), and Margin of Exposure (MOE) for various age and gender groups. The prevalence of acrylamide contamination increased from 13% (25.1 ng/g) to 31% (31.9 ng/g) between the first and second periods. The noncarcinogenic risk index (THQ) increased in 2020-2021, approximately 20% higher than in 2016-2017, with children at higher risk. MOE values indicate that the neoplastic effects of AA in chips can be threatening in both genders, under 10 years old, as the MOE is below 10,000, and could fall into the category of the highest public health concern. New risk assessment approaches revealed that HQs were approximately six times higher in adults and five times higher in children, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive risk evaluation that considers multiple sources of AA exposure.
