C, W, M, H: cells, worms or flies, mice, humans. Dark: independent labs found the same change there. Light: one lab or one study. Outline: nothing yet.

Labs are independent when their papers share no last author and no institution.

Against: findings that point the other way from most findings on the same outcome.

On aging: the drug’s trials ARN judged to be about aging, of every trial that tests it for any use.

No results posted: trials that ended more than a year ago with no results on ClinicalTrials.gov and no paper in ARN’s record.

Company ties: findings with an author at a company, or from a paper whose competing-interests statement declares ties to one.

Pesticide exposure is associated with blood pressure category in humans (Probit β = -0.122, 95% CI -0.225 to -0.019).
“The inverse associations with married status and pesticide exposure are unexpected and are best interpreted as hypothesis-generating given the cross-sectional design.”
