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

backgroundCertain endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are widespread in consumer products and may alter glucose metabolism. However, the impact of EDC exposures on glucose and insulin regulation during pregnancy is incompletely understood, despite potential adverse consequences for maternal and infant health. We estimated associations between 37 urinary biomarkers of EDCs and glucose-insulin traits among pregnant women.

methodsSeventeen phthalate or phthalate substitute metabolites, six environmental phenols, four parabens, and ten organophosphate ester metabolites were quantified in mid-pregnancy urine from 298 participants in the Healthy Start Study. Fasting blood glucose, insulin, and hemoglobin A1c were assessed concurrently, and Homeostasis Model Assessment 2-Insulin Resistance (HOMA2-IR) was calculated. Gestational diabetes diagnoses and screening results were obtained from medical records for a subset of participants. We estimated associations between each EDC and outcome separately using linear and robust Poisson regression models and analyzed EDC mixture effects.

resultsThe EDC mixture was positively associated with glucose, insulin, and HOMA2-IR, although overall associations were attenuated after adjustment for maternal BMI. Two mixture approaches identified di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) metabolites as top contributors to the mixture's positive associations. In single-pollutant models, DEHP metabolites were positively associated with fasting glucose, fasting insulin, and HOMA2-IR even after adjustment for maternal BMI. For example, each interquartile range increase in log DISCUSSION: Exposures to phthalates and particularly DEHP during pregnancy are associated with altered glucose-insulin regulation. Disruptions in maternal glucose metabolism during pregnancy may contribute to adverse pregnancy outcomes including gestational diabetes and fetal macrosomia, and associated long-term consequences for maternal and child health.
