Air Pollution and Endurance Exercise: A Systematic Review of the Potential Effects on Cardiopulmonary Health.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 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
This systematic review aimed to analyze the implications of endurance exercise in environments with certain levels of air pollution. This study was developed on the basis of the consensus of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). The present review is supported by articles containing the main databases PubMed, Elsevier, and Web of Science (WoS), including scientific articles published in the last 20 years. This study highlights that exposure to air pollution during endurance activities, such as cycling and outdoor running, significantly affects cardiopulmonary health. In conclusion, while physical exercise in environments with high air pollution presents significant risks to cardiopulmonary health, implementing preventive measures and adopting public policies are crucial to minimizing these impacts and promoting safe exercise practices. Likewise, on the basis of these results, it is possible to motivate the creation of safe and natural spaces for sports practice.
