Essential Trace Elements in Edible Plants: Balancing Nutritional Benefits and Potential Health Risks.
Article in Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 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
This study examined the concentrations and bioaccessibility of essential trace elements (ETEs), namely, cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn), in edible plants commonly consumed in Poland, assessing their nutritional contribution and potential health risks. Total and bioaccessible concentrations were measured in vegetables, fruits, and cereals using seven standardized, physiologically relevant extraction methods. Estimated Nutrient Intake (ENI) and noncarcinogenic risks (Hazard Quotients, HQs) were calculated via Monte Carlo simulations to account for variability in consumption and absorption. Results revealed substantial differences among plant types and extraction protocols, with bioaccessibility-based methods generally yielding intake estimates lower than total concentrations. Most ENI values fell within the recommended intake ranges, although some scenarios indicated potential underexposure (Co, Fe) or overexposure (Cu, Mn). These findings underscore the importance of incorporating bioaccessibility data and realistic exposure modeling into dietary risk assessment and nutritional guidelines for edible plants.
