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

Background: While the associations of indoor allergens, endotoxin, heavy metals, and parabens with allergy outcomes are well-studied, the combined association remains unclear. This study examines the association between their combined exposure and allergy outcomes in adults. Methods: A toatl of 1,065 adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2006 were included in analyses. We applied a weighted logistic regression model to investigate the association between individual exposure to 10 chemicals (including Results: The weighted logistic regression model indicated that high-level exposures (Tertile 3 vs. Tertile 1) to Can f 1, Fel d 1, Mus m 1, endotoxin, cadmium, mercury, methyl paraben, and propyl paraben were significantly associated with an increased risk of allergy-related outcomes. In WQS regression analysis, the WQS index was significantly associated with an increased risk of allergy-related outcomes (aOR = 1.49, 95% CI: 1.04-2.11, Conclusion: Joint and individual exposures to multiple environmental pollutants, particularly Can f 1, methyl paraben, endotoxin, and cadmium, are associated with increased allergy risk in adults. These results underscore the need for integrated exposure assessment in allergy prevention strategies.
