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

Negative air ions (NAIs) in forest air contribute to air purification, improve respiratory system function, enhance immunity, reduce fatigue, and alleviate stress and anxiety. However, NAIs are easily influenced by meteorological factors, air quality factors, and radiation factors, and the mechanisms of these influences remain unclear. To investigate the dynamic changes of NAIs and their driving factors, this study focuses on the long-term monitoring of NAIs in the Yunzhong Mountain forest of the South Asian subtropical region in China. Using linear mixed models, structural equation models, and other ecological niche models, the study explores the characteristics of the dynamic changes in NAIs and their responses to meteorological factors, air quality factors, and radiation factors in the Yunzhong Mountain forest. The results showed that: (1) The seasonal variation of NAIs in the Yunzhong Mountain forest followed the pattern of summer > autumn > winter > spring. In terms of monthly dynamics, the highest concentrations of NAIs occurred in August. Regarding daily dynamics, the concentration of NAIs gradually increased from early morning, reaching its peak at 8:00 AM, after which it declined, reaching the lowest concentrations between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM. (2) Correlation analysis showed that the concentrations of NAIs were significantly negatively correlated with NO
