Human toxicity of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and their derivatives: A comprehensive review.
Review in Current research in food science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Polybrominated biphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been pervasively used as an additive flame retardant in various fields. The nature of environmental persistence, bioaccumulation, and potential toxicity attracted attention worldwide and became a threat to both the ecosystem and human health. Originally, PBDEs are produced in chemical factories. PBDEs exposure was mainly by ingestion of contaminated food products, followed by inhalation of particles containing deposited PBDEs. This review concluded the liver injuries, thyroid hormone disorder, neurotoxicity, genotoxicity and immune system disorders as five major toxicities via overexposure to PBDEs and their toxic mechanism. PBDEs can cause severe consequences by inducing mitochondria dysfunction and oxidative stress, disrupting neurotransmitter metabolism and compromising the integrity of DNA, etc. This review presented an in-depth analysis of the most recent toxicological evidence to offer suggestions for future studies to control human overexposure to PBDEs.
