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

Introduction: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) typically occur as mixtures, and their combined associations with platelet traits have been scarcely explored in rural populations. This study investigated both individual and joint associations of PAHs with platelet traits. Methods: A subpopulation ( Results: GLM showed that there were associations of certain plasma PAHs with platelet traits across participants. For instance, Dibenz(a,h)anthracene (DahA), Fluoranthene (Flu), and Pyrene (Pyr) were negatively associated with platelet count (PLT) in the total population. Positive associations of certain PAHs with platelet size indicators such as MPV and platelet distribution width (PDW) were observed. The mixture of 10 PAHs was positively associated with PDW, MPV, platelet large cell ratio, MPV/PLT ratio (MPVP), and PDW/PLT, with DahA and Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) identified as major contributors. These associations remained among non-smoking and non-cooking men and non-smoking women who reported self-cooking. Discussion: The findings show that individual plasma PAHs and their mixture are related to increased risk of platelet dysfunction, with BaP and DahA identified as key contributors. The results indicate that the association between PAH exposure and changes in platelet indicators was prominent among women with unhealthy cooking behaviors.
