Association between bisphenols A and the risk of endometriosis: results from an updated meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Recent studies have disputed the association between bisphenol A (BPA) and endometriosis. This updated meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the impact of BPA exposure on endometriosis. Methods: This study evaluated BPA exposure and endometriosis risk, analyzing studies from Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Chinese databases (CNKI, CBM, Wanfang, VIP) through August 2025. Methodological quality was assessed via the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Tool (AHRQ). Heterogeneity was quantified using Results: Seven studies comprising 2,488 participants were included in quantitative synthesis. The meta-analyses demonstrated that BPA exposure was associated with a statistically significant increase in endometriosis risk (OR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.13-1.63, Systematic review registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/view/CRD420251019552, identifier PROSPERO (CRD420251019552).
