Physiological equivalent temperature and hospitalized due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases in Dezful, Iran.
Article in Heliyon, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: The Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) index providing a standardized reference point, PET enables non-experts to better understand and assess the physiological implications of varying environmental temperatures and thermal comfort levels across different settings. We aimed to evaluate the relationships between the PET Index and Hospitalized due to Respiratory Diseases (RD) and Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) in Dezful city. Method: Hospital admissions, climate variables and environmental pollution data (PM Result: In high PET, the risk of respiratory diseases has been significantly reduced (Lag Discussion: It seems that in Dezful, low levels of PET increase the risk of hospitalization for cardiovascular patients, while due to certain factors, including the potential adaptive effect of the people of Dezful to heat on health, high levels of PET reduce the risk of hospitalization for all respiratory diseases and the risk of cardiovascular hospitalization in women.
