Physical Activity, Air Pollution Exposure, and Lung Function Interactions Among Adults with COPD.
Article in Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (Miami, Fla.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Rationale: Although physical activity is strongly encouraged for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), it is unknown if physical activity affects daily exposure to air pollution, or whether it attenuates or exacerbates the effects of pollution on the airways among adults with COPD. Methods: Thirty former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD in Boston were followed for 4 non-consecutive months in different seasons. We assessed daily lung function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV Results: Higher daily step count was associated with higher same-day personal exposure to PM Conclusions: Higher physical activity was associated with modestly higher daily exposure to PM
