aTargeted topics refers to examples where a specific exposure and health outcome were identified (e.g., bisphenol A and obesity); for untargeted topics, one or both of these parameters were not defined, e.g., the topic transgenerational inheritance of health effect focused on a particular study design and was not restricted to a specific type of exposure or health outcome
