Exposure to ambient air pollutions and its association with adverse birth outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of epidemiological studies.

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
Introduction: Air pollution is a significant global public health concern. However, there is a lack of updated and comprehensive evidence regarding the association between exposure to ambient air pollution and adverse birth outcomes (preterm birth, low birth weight, and stillbirth). Furthermore, the existing evidence is highly inconsistent. Therefore, this study aims to estimate the overall association between ambient air pollution and adverse birth outcomes. Methods: In this study, initially a total of 79,356 articles were identified. Finally, a total of 49 articles were included. We conducted compressive literature searches using various databases, including PubMed, Scientific Direct, Results: In this study, the pooled prevalence of at least one adverse birth outcome was 7.69% (95% CI: 6.70-8.69), with high heterogeneity ( Conclusion: This study highlighted a significant association between ambient air pollution and adverse birth outcomes. Therefore, it is crucial to implement a compressive public health intervention. Systematic review registration: The review protocol was registered with the record ID of CRD42024578630.
