Air pollution attributed disease burden and economic growth in India: Estimating trends and inequality between states.
Article in The Lancet regional health. Southeast Asia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Air pollution is one of the major contributors to the disease burden in India after malnutrition. We examined the relation, and state-wise disparities in air pollution attributed to disease burden (APADB) concerning gross state domestic product (GSDP) and growth in motor vehicles in India. Methods: We retrieved disability-adjusted life year (DALY) estimates for India due to air pollution from the Global Burden of Disease Studies, injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD). We examined the association between APADB with GSDP and the growth in the number of registered motor vehicles in India during the 2011 to 2019 period. Concentration indices and Lorenz curves were used to explore the variation in APADB across individual states. Findings: Except for a few states, APADB is inversely proportional to GSDP. Growth in motor vehicles was also negatively correlated with the APADB in n=19 states. The concentration index explained a 47% inequality in APADB between individual states and exhibited a decline (45%) during 2019 compared to 2011. The unevenness in APADB among Indian states is evident from the analysis as the states occupying the 6 Interpretation: The APADB is inversely correlated with GSDP for most of the states, and the negative correlations were conspicuous when APADB per 100,000 population was analysed. The concentration index and Lorenz revealed the presence of APADB inequality between states in terms of GSDP, population, urbanisation, and total factories. Funding: Not applicable.
