Transcriptomic Analysis of the Differential Nephrotoxicity of Diverse Brominated Flame Retardants in Rat and Human Renal Cells.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are environmentally persistent, are detected in humans, and some have been banned due to their potential toxicity. BFRs are developmental neurotoxicants and endocrine disruptors; however, few studies have explored their potential nephrotoxicity. We addressed this gap in the literature by determining the toxicity of three different BFRs (tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), and tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47)) in rat (NRK 52E) and human (HK-2 and RPTEC) tubular epithelial cells. All compounds induced time- and concentration-dependent toxicity based on decreases in MTT staining and changes in cell and nuclear morphology. The toxicity of BFRs was chemical- and cell-dependent, and human cells were more susceptible to all three BFRs based on IC
