1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundParticulate matter (PM) air pollution has been associated with decreased pulmonary function, but the exposure–response relationship in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients is uncertain, and most studies have only focused on exposures to ambient pollution.

objectivesWe aimed to assess associations between pulmonary function and indoor and ambient PM

methodsBetween November 2012 and December 2014, 125 patients with COPD (mean age, 73.4 y) who were not currently smoking and without known indoor BC sources were recruited. Indoor BC and

resultsThere were 367 study visits; the median (IQR) indoor BC and
