Air Quality Awareness and Behaviors of U.S. Adolescents With and Without Asthma.
Article in American journal of preventive medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
introductionAmong U.S. adolescents, the knowledge that air pollution can impact health is relatively high and varies by the demographics of the respondents and the places they live, but the influence of asthma status is unknown. This study assesses the role of asthma in U.S. adolescents' awareness, perceptions, and behaviors related to air pollution.
methodsIn 2020, data were analyzed from 817 adolescents aged 12-17 years who responded to the 2020 Porter Novelli Public Services YouthStyles survey, a nationally representative survey of U.S. adolescents. Respondents self-reported having or having had asthma in the past year and their awareness, perceptions, and behaviors related to air pollution. For each aspect of air quality awareness, perception, and behavior, weighted percentages of responses were calculated by asthma status.
resultsOverall, an estimated 11.5% of U.S. adolescents self-reported asthma. Awareness that air pollution can impact health, awareness that respondents can limit their air pollution exposure, and having heard or read about air quality alerts were similar among adolescents with and without asthma, with some differences reported in where they heard or read about air quality alerts. Those with asthma reported discussing with a health professional about ways to limit exposure more frequently than those without asthma.
conclusionsDespite the well-known risk of asthma exacerbations from air pollution exposure, air quality awareness was similar among adolescents with and without asthma. These findings reveal the areas in which air quality awareness and behaviors to reduce exposure can be improved among adolescents with and without asthma.
