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

Background: Cohort studies have reported positive associations between long-term exposure to ambient fine particles (PM Methods: We used an open population-based cohort created from health administrative databases. The cohort included all adults older than 20 years living in the province of Quebec, Canada, between 2002 and 2017. We assessed long-term exposure to ambient PM Results: The cohort included 7,506,027 individuals, with 996,665 and 231,376 deaths from all causes and IHD, respectively. In the between-subjects analysis, hazard ratios from linear models were 1.03 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02, 1.03) for all-cause and 1.04 (95% CI: 1.03, 1.05) for IHD per interquartile range (3.3 µg/m Conclusions: Consistently across the two designs, we found positive associations between annual mean exposure to low level of ambient PM
