Environmental exposures and pediatric kidney health.
Review in Pediatric research, 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
Environmental exposures are increasingly associated with kidney and cardiometabolic disease in children. This review summarizes current understanding of the potentially hazardous effects of air pollution, chemical toxicants, and heavy metal contamination on pediatric kidney health and cardiometabolic risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD), as well as the potentially protective effect of green space. We highlight the critical windows of childhood development, during which the kidneys may have varying susceptibility to environmental exposures. We also discuss challenges and possible solutions to adequately powered studies at the intersection of environmental health and pediatric kidney disease. Environmental exposures are both ubiquitous and modifiable. Therefore, elucidating the contribution of environmental exposures to the increasing global burden of CKD will be crucial to informing strategies for kidney disease prevention, starting in childhood. IMPACT: We summarize current evidence on the associations between environmental exposures-including air pollution, chemical toxicants, and heavy metal contamination-and pediatric kidney disease and related cardiometabolic risk factors, as well as the potentially protective effect of green space. We highlight how the impact of environmental exposures on the kidneys may vary during different critical windows of childhood development. Lastly, we discuss methodological challenges and potential solutions, such as using novel technologies and approaches to adequately power studies toward the goal of environmental intervention for chronic kidney disease (CKD) prevention.
