Short-term exposure to particulate air pollution and risk of myocardial infarction: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
A growing number of studies have associated short-term exposure to ambient particulate matter air pollution (PM) and risk of specific cardiovascular events, just as myocardial infarction (MI). However, the results of the recent studies were inconsistent; therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed. To synthetically quantify the association between short-term exposure to PM and risk of MI, a meta-analysis was conducted to combine the estimates of effect for a relationship between short-term exposure to PM10, PM2.5 (particulate matter ≤ 10 μm, 2.5 μm in diameter) and risk of MI. Electronic database searches for all relevant published studies were updated in January 2015. And, a random-effects model was performed to estimate pooled relative risk (RR) and 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CI). Thirty-one published observational epidemiological studies were identified. Risk of MI was significantly associated with per 10 μg/m(3) increment in PM10 (OR = 1.005; 95 % CI 1.001-1.008) and PM2.5 (OR = 1.022; 95 % CI 1.015-1.030). The risk of PM2.5 exposure was relatively greater than PM10. In the subgroup analysis by study design, location, quality score, and lag exposure, the results were basically consistent with the former overall results in PM2.5 but slightly changed in PM10. Short-term exposure to particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10) was a risk factor for MI, and the results further confirmed the discovery in the previous meta-analysis.
