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

backgroundIn California, climate change and competing water demands are intensifying the desiccation of the Salton Sea, a large land-locked "sea" situated near the southeastern rural US-Mexico border region known as the Imperial Valley.

methodsTo examine the possible effects of living near a saline lake on children's respiratory health, we analyzed the relationship between respiratory health symptoms and ambient PM concentrations among a predominantly Latino/Hispanic cohort of 722 school age children. Guardians completed a survey of their child's wheeze and respiratory health symptoms over the past 12 months, adapted from the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC). Exposure to dust storm hours (hourly concentrations >150 μg/m

resultsBetween 2017 and 2019, children were exposed to 98 to 395 dust event hours annually. We observed disparate effects for dust events and wheeze among children living near the Salton Sea. Every additional 100 dust storm hours per year among children living near the Sea (<11 km) was associated with a 9.5 percentage point increase in wheeze (95% CI: 3.5, 15.4), a 4.6 percentage point increase in bronchitic symptoms (95% CI: 0.18, 10.2) and a 6.7 percentage point increase in sleep disturbance due to wheeze (95% CI: 0.96, 12.4). Similarly, increases in PM

conclusionWe observed stronger adverse impacts of PM
