Serum Proteoglycan Alterations Associated with Cardiovascular Risk in Pb-Battery Recycling Workers Using Exploratory Proteomics and Independent ELISA Validation.
Article in Cardiovascular toxicology, 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
Lead (Pb) is a prevalent environmental and occupational toxin that disrupts several biological systems. Its toxicological effects are well known but serum proteomic alterations associated with Pb remain insufficiently characterized. This study investigated serum proteomic changes in Pb-battery recycling workers (Pb-BRW) to identify the candidate proteins associated with Pb exposure using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Blood samples (5 mL) were collected from Pb-BRW (n = 78) and age-matched unexposed controls (n = 65) from three industries in Karnataka, India. Blood Pb levels were assessed using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy. Serum samples (n = 10) pooled from each group were analyzed using quantitative discovery HRMS. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD082567. Raw files were processed using Proteome Discoverer, and proteins were identified using the UniProt Homo sapiens reviewed database. Further data were analysed in Perseus with log
