1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundElectronic cigarette (ECIG) use in vehicles represents a public health concern due to the potential for exposure to high concentrations of particulate matter (PM) and other toxicants. This study examined the impact of ECIG use on air quality in vehicles.

methodsPeople who reported current ECIG use (n=60; mean age=20.5, SD=2.3) completed a brief survey and a 30-min ECIG use session in their own vehicle. Using a protocol similar to clinical laboratory studies involving tobacco use, participants took 10 directed puffs (i.e., a directed bout with one puff every 30s for 5min) followed by a 25-min ad libitum period in which participants took as many puffs as desired. PM 2.5µm in diameter or smaller (PM

resultsParticipants took a median 18 total puffs during the sessions. Median PM

conclusionsECIG use in vehicles impacts air quality negatively and may pose health risks to those present in vehicles when ECIG use is occurring.
