A Review of Organophosphate Esters with Different Functional Groups: Focusing on Microbial Degradation.
Review in Toxics, 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
Organophosphate esters (OPEs), characterized by diverse chemical substituents, have emerged as widely used flame retardants and plasticizers, replacing polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) under global regulatory actions. However, due to their environmental persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and multiple toxic effects, OPEs are now recognized as emerging pollutants and have attracted extensive research attention. This review systematically compares structurally distinct OPEs in terms of their environmental occurrence, physicochemical properties, mobility, and biodegradation fate. We place special emphasis on recent advances in microbial degradation and enzymatic transformation pathways under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, with a focus on key degrading strains, metabolic intermediates, and underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, factors influencing biodegradation rates (including compound structure, microbial community composition, and environmental variables) are comprehensively examined. By identifying critical research gaps and proposing future directions, this review aims to provide a scientific foundation for sustainable management and effective risk assessment of OPEs in the environment.
