Effects of Fireworks Burning on Air Quality during the Chinese Spring Festival-Evidence from Zhengzhou, China.
Article in Toxics, 2023. 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
Fireworks burning significantly degrades air quality over a short duration. The prohibition of fireworks burning (POFB) policy of 2016 and the restricted-hours fireworks burning (RHFB) policy of 2023 in Zhengzhou City provide an ideal opportunity to investigate the effects of such policies and of fireworks burning on air quality during the Spring Festival period. Based on air quality ground-based monitoring data and meteorological data for Zhengzhou City, the article analyzes the impact of the POFB policy and the RHFB policy on air quality. The results show that: (1) The ban on fireworks burning significantly affects Spring Festival air quality, with a decrease of 16.0% in the Air Quality Index (AQI) value in 2016 compared to 2015 and a 74.9% increase in 2023 compared to 2022. (2) From 2016 to 2022, the Spring Festival period witnessed a substantial decrease in average concentration of main pollutants, along with a delayed occurrence of peak concentrations, indicating a noticeable "peak-shaving" effect. However, in 2023, there was an increase in pollutant concentrations, volatility, and a significant surge in hourly concentration. (3) The POFB policy and RHFB policy notably impacted PM
