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

The German Senate Commission for the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the Work Area (MAK Commission) re-evaluated the data for aniline [62-53-3] to verify the biological tolerance value (BAT value) of 500 μg aniline/l urine and to assign the BAT value to a pregnancy risk group, considering all toxicological end points. Relevant studies were identified from a literature search. The critical effect of aniline exposure in humans is considered to be the formation of methaemoglobin. It must be ensured that the methaemoglobin value remains below 5%, even if the BAT value is maintained. In an experimental study, the methaemoglobin content in human blood rose from 0.72% to an average methaemoglobin value of 1.2% (maximum of 2.07% methaemoglobin) during six hours of exposure to 2 ml aniline/m
