Air Pollution and Breast Cancer: An Examination of Modification By Underlying Familial Breast Cancer Risk.
Article in Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

13 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 31 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
backgroundAn increased familial risk of breast cancer may be due to both shared genetics and environment. Women with a breast cancer family history may have a higher prevalence of breast cancer-related gene variants and thus increased susceptibility to environmental exposures. We evaluated whether air pollutant and breast cancer associations varied by familial risk.
methodsSister Study participants living in the contiguous United States at enrollment (2003-2009;
resultsNO
conclusionsOur results provide additional evidence that air pollution may be implicated in breast cancer, particularly among women with a higher familial risk. IMPACT: Women at higher underlying breast cancer risk may benefit more from interventions to reduce exposure to NO
