Racial-ethnic composition of U.S. school districts, wildfire smoke PM
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2025. 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: In 2023, the U.S. Biden administration called for an "all-hands-on-deck" response to address chronic absenteeism and disrupted learning among primary and secondary school students due to school closures and remote learning during the pandemic. To identify student populations that might benefit from interventions, this study examined the racial-ethnic composition of school districts as a predictor of wildfire smoke PM Methods: In a lagged cross-sectional study, multivariable logistic regression was employed to investigate school district quartiles of mean percentages of non-White students as predictors of: 1) mean levels of wildfire smoke PM Results: The highest (vs. lowest) quartile for the district-level percentage of non-White students predicted a nearly 3-fold higher odds (adjusted odds ratio, AOR = 2.78; 95 % CI = 2.07-3.74; Conclusions: Districts with higher percentages of non-White students showed elevated odds of high wildfire smoke PM
