Research Trends on Pesticide Exposure and Cancer Development: A Global Literature Review (2005-2024).
Review in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study examines the global research landscape on the relationship between pesticide exposure and cancer using bibliometric and scientometric approaches. A total of 3908 records published between 2005 and 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science database using an elaborate search strategy incorporating pesticide-related keywords (e.g., atrazine, glyphosate, DDT, chlorpyrifos) and general cancer descriptors (cancer and neoplasm). The analysis explores publication trends, citation patterns, keyword co-occurrence, and co-citation networks to understand the evolution of research in this field. The results reveal a consistent increase in publication output, indicating growing global attention to pesticide-related health risks. Keyword burst analysis and temporal thematic assessment highlight a clear evolution in research focus, shifting from early studies on occupational exposure and epidemiological risk assessment toward recent emphasis on toxicity, oxidative stress, and mechanistic pathways underlying carcinogenesis. The findings provide important insights for future research, public health policy, and regulatory frameworks, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary approaches. By identifying emerging themes and research gaps, this study offers a broad understanding of the development of pesticide-cancer research and supports efforts to mitigate the health impacts of pesticide exposure.
