The impact of atmospheric pollutants on the physical health of college students--based on physical examination data of college students from a certain university in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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: Air pollution, particularly particulate matter (PM Methods: We used longitudinal physical examination data (2019-2022) from 21,580 college students to perform empirical correlation regression and kernel density estimation. Trends in physical fitness and vital capacity scores were analyzed alongside air quality indicators (AQI, PM Results: Air pollution was significantly associated with a reduction in physical fitness scores. A 1-unit increase in the AQI was linked to a 0.1094-unit decline in fitness scores ( Conclusion: This study highlights the disproportionate health impact of air pollution on college students, emphasizing the need for policies that focus on reducing emissions, expanding campus greenery, and promoting health education. Future research should incorporate individual fixed effects and broaden the study to include a wider range of regions and universities.
