Comparing human exposure to fine particulate matter in low and high-income countries: A systematic review of studies measuring personal PM
Synthesis in The Science of the total environment, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
backgroundDue to the adverse health effects of air pollution, researchers have advocated for personal exposure measurements whereby individuals carry portable monitors in order to better characterise and understand the sources of people's pollution exposure.
objectivesThe aim of this systematic review is to assess the differences in the magnitude and sources of personal PM
methodsThis review summarised studies that measured participants personal exposure by carrying a PM
resultsFrom the 2259 search results, there were 140 studies that met our criteria. Overall, personal PM
conclusionThis review revealed a growing literature of personal PM
