Di(2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate Alters Primordial Germ Cell Distribution and the Reproductive Neuroendocrine Regulatory Axis in Zebrafish Embryos.

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
Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is known to adversely affect reproduction. Our previous study demonstrated that DEHP exposure during embryogenesis impaired fertility in adult female zebrafish. The objective of this study was to investigate developmental events underlying this effect. Embryos were exposed to DEHP 5 h post-fertilization (hpf), and the distribution of primordial germ cells (PGCs), along with the expression of genes involved in PGC migration, maintenance, and neuroendocrine regulation, was assessed. Molecular docking simulations were performed to evaluate whether DEHP's main metabolite, mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), is able to bind to zebrafish estrogen receptors (Esr). Our results show that DEHP reduced the expression of
