Indoor and Outdoor Air Pollution- related Health Problem in Ethiopia: Review of Related Literature.
Article in The Ethiopian journal of health development = Ya'Ityopya tena lemat mashet, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03612362 (Effect of Improved "Injera" Baking Stove Intervention on Household Air Pollution and Childhood Acute Respiratory Infection Prevention), which is not on this map. Cited by 23 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
backgroundThe health effects of air pollution are generally global problems, but they have, since recently become issues of particular concern for developing countries. This review assessed the situation of air pollution and related health effects in the context of Ethiopia.
methodsThe materials reviewed in this publication are published scientific papers from online search engines, unpublished government reports and academic theses/dissertations. In addition, interview data obtained from authorities and experts involved in the management of air quality were analyzed, interpreted and reported in the article.
resultsReview of the few studies conducted in Ethiopia showed that average concentrations of PM
conclusionThe limited evidence reviewed and reported in this article indicates high levels of indoor air pollution and trends of worsening outdoor air pollution. This tentative conclusion carries with it the urgent need for more evidence-based research and capacity building in the areas of indoor and outdoor air pollution.
