The effect of PM10 on human lung fibroblasts.
Article in Toxicology and industrial health, 2009. 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
Asthma diagnoses are increasing nationally with the highest rates in the New England states. Epidemiological studies have suggested a relationship between airborne particulate matter (PM) and severity of an asthma attack. However, because particulate matter, PM, is such a complex mixture, it is difficult to isolate the exacerbating factors. In this paper we investigate the effect of NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and Maine PM and the soluble metals released from the PM on the growth of human lung fibroblasts. While the NIST PM itself had the most pronounced effect on cell survival rates, solutions of metals extracted from the PM also affected cell survival. Treatment of cells with 10, 50, 100 and 200 ug/cm(2) resulted in 84 +/- 13%, 69 +/- 15%, 58 +/- 14% and 58 +/- 16% survival, respectively. Appropriate concentrations of eight acid soluble metals from NIST PM were determined and tested on cells giving 91 +/- 11%, 87 +/- 10%, 72 +/- 18% and 66 +/- 20% survival, respectively. Soluble metals from Maine PM were extracted and mixtures of appropriate concentrations of these metals were used to treat cells, resulting in 88 +/- 5%, 81 +/- 5%, 79 +/- 3% and 57 +/- 9% survival rate. To determine which, if any, of the metals individually affected the cells, Mn, Cu, V and As were used to treat the cells. At the metal concentrations tested, only As and V affected cell survival.
