Concentration and Community of Airborne Bacteria in Response to Cyclical Haze Events During the Fall and Midwinter in Beijing, China.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Since 2013, severe haze events frequently have occurred in Beijing between October and March, which have created a significant public health threat. Although variations in the chemical composition of these haze events have been studied widely, information pertaining to airborne bacteria in such haze events remains limited. In this study, we characterized the concentration, community structure, and composition of the airborne bacteria in response to nine haze events that occurred between October 1, 2015, and January 5, 2016. We also analyzed the correlations of airborne bacteria (concentration, community structure, and composition) with pollution levels and meteorological factors. The results indicated that airborne bacterial concentration showed a positive cyclical correlation with the haze events, but the bacterial concentration plateaued at the yellow pollution level. In addition, we found particulate matter (PM
