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

The detrimental effect of secondhand smoke (SHS) on health is well known; due to various factors, efforts to prevent SHS cannot completely eliminate the effect of smoking substances, and SHS has not been sufficiently investigated among children. This study aimed to assess children's smoke exposure with respect to parents smoking patterns using biomarkers. This study used data from the 2016/2017 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Data pertaining to 486 subjects was extracted. Exposure to smoking among non-smoking children was assessed based on urine levels of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL). The urine NNAL concentration was highest among children with smoking parents and SHS exposure at home (3.829 pg/mg, 95% confidence interval [CI: 1.499-8.330), followed by children with smoking parents and no SHS exposure at home (1.297, 95% CI: 1.080-1.536), and children with nonsmoking parents and no SHS exposure at home (0.996 pg/mg, 95% CI: 1.026-1.427). Living with a smoking parent was associated with exposure to carcinogens, and a critical predictor of tobacco-specific nitrosamine. Prohibition of smoking at home is effective at preventing SHS in children. However, it cannot completely prevent passive smoking, which might be attributable to thirdhand smoking and undetected secondhand smoke.
