Air pollution exposure during pregnancy and lung function in childhood: The LUIS study.
Article in Pediatric pulmonology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe adverse effects of high air pollution levels on childhood lung function are well-known. Limited evidence exists on the effects of moderate exposure levels during early life on childhood lung function. We investigated the association of exposure to moderate air pollution during pregnancy, infancy, and preschool time with lung function at school age in a Swiss population-based study.
methodsFine-scale spatiotemporal model estimates of particulate matter with a diameter <2.5 µm (PM
resultsWe included 2182 children, ages 6-17 years. Prenatal air pollution exposure was associated with reduced lung function at school age. In children aged 12 years, per 10 µg·m
conclusionIn utero lung development is most sensitive to air pollution exposure, since even modest PM
