Theoretical Threshold for Estimating the Impact of Ventilation on Materials' Emissions.
Review in Environmental science & technology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In new buildings, nonoccupant VOC emissions are initially high but typically decrease within months. Increased ventilation is commonly used to improve indoor air quality, assuming it speeds up VOC off-gassing from materials. However, previous research presents inconsistent results. This review introduces a simplified analytical model to understand the ventilation-emission relationship. By combining factors such as diffusivity, emitting area, and time, the model suggests the existence of a theoretical ventilation threshold beyond which enhanced ventilation has no further influence on emission rates. A threshold of approximately 0.13 L s
