Assessment of variations of air pollutant concentrations during the COVID-19 lockdown and impact on urban air quality in South Asia.
Article in Urban climate, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Quantifying the variations of atmospheric aerosols and trace gas concentrations with the impact of lockdown due to the Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is crucial in understanding urban air quality. For this purpose, we utilized the multi-instrumental approach of satellite remote sensing and reanalysis model data to examine the spatial and temporal patterns of major air pollutants during December 2019-June 2020 in South Asia. The lockdown has to lead to a considerable decrease in aerosol optical thickness (AOT) over South China (-18.92%) and Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP; -24.29%) compared to its ordinary level for a couple of weeks. Noticeable reductions in tropospheric NO
