Exposure to air pollution and the risk of type II diabetes mellitus: a time-series study.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Environmental factors have been identified as primary risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, studies on the association between environmental factors and T2DM have mainly focused on morbidity and mortality, which do not fully reflect the disease burden stemming from air pollution. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the correlation between air pollution and T2DM, including hospital length of stay (LOS) and costs. Methods: We collected data on patients with T2DM from three healthcare institutions in Xinxiang from 2016-2021. Data on particulate and gaseous pollutants in Xinxiang and daily meteorological data were collected from national databases. The distribution lag nonlinear model was used to evaluate the correlation between air pollution and the number of inpatients with T2DM, LOS, and hospital costs. Subgroup analyses were conducted to identify potential modifying factors. Results: Overall, 13,797 patients with T2DM were included in our analysis. Within the cumulative lag of 7 days, with every increase of 1 mg/m Conclusions: Exposure to air pollutants increased T2DM risk, imposing significant economic and social burdens in Xinxiang, China. Implementing policies to reduce air pollutant exposure may decrease T2DM admissions, costs, and LOS.
