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

backgroundMany cohort studies have reported associations between PM

objectiveOur goal was to directly estimate the effect of PM

methodsWe derived nonparametric estimates of the distribution of life expectancy as a function of PM

resultsThe estimated mean age at death for a population with an annual average PM

conclusionsWe believe that this is the first study to directly estimate the effect of PM
