Association of short-term exposure to ambient PM
Article in BMJ open, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
objectivesTo examine the effect of short-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingInpatient hospitalisation claims identified from the US Renal Data System in 530 US counties.
participantsAll patients receiving in-centre haemodialysis between 2008 and 2014. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Risk of all-cause, cardiovascular and respiratory-related hospital admissions and 30-day all-cause and cause-specific readmission following an all-cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory-related discharges. Readmission risk was evaluated for early (1-7 days postdischarge) and late (8-30 days postdischarge) readmission time periods. Relative risk is expressed per 10 μg/m
