Associations Between Maternal Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Exposure from Seafood Consumption during Pregnancy and Lactation and Child Growth: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
Beyond its nutritional benefits, seafood is a source of toxicant exposure including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB). The association of PCB exposure from seafood intake during pregnancy and/or lactation (PL) and child growth outcomes is uncertain. This systematic review investigated the evidence and quantified the association between PCB exposure during PL from seafood intake and child growth outcomes. Embase, PubMed, and CENTRAL databases were searched from their inception for peer-reviewed English articles. Records were screened independently by 2 researchers at title and abstract, and then full-text levels. Studies were included if they: 1) were conducted in a country with a high Human Development Index, 2) measured maternal PCB exposure directly, 3) assessed the relationship between PCB and seafood exposures or PCB or seafood associations with a child growth outcome, and 4) were randomized or nonrandomized interventions, cohort, or nested case-control studies.
