Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 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: This research assesses how fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution influences cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) globally. Methods: Utilizing data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, we assessed the impact of PM2.5 pollution on CVDs in individuals aged 25 and older. The health burden was quantified using measures such as disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), age-standardized rates (ASRs), and the effective annual percentage change (EAPC). Joinpoint regression models were used to describe the temporal trends of CVD burdens, while the Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) models were employed to project the CVD burdens through 2030. Frontier analysis was conducted to identify potential areas for improvement and gaps between the development statuses of different countries. Decomposition analysis was applied to assess the impact of population growth, aging, and epidemiological changes on the burden of CVDs. Results: Despite a decline in ASRs for both sexes, males continued to bear a disproportionate burden of CVDs. While substantial reductions in ASRs have been noted in Western Europe and High-income North America, smaller decreases in the EAPC have been seen in South Asia, Oceania, and Western Sub-Saharan Africa; however, Oceania faces the highest mortality burden. An inverse relationship between the sociodemographic index (SDI) and ASRs is evident nationally. Meanwhile, Afghanistan and Egypt reported elevated ASRs, and Iceland recorded the lowest rate. Projections suggest a potential reversal in ASRs by 2021. A decomposition analysis revealed that intracerebral hemorrhage poses the greatest burden in middle SDI regions, while ischemic heart disease is notably burdensome in high SDI and high-middle SDI regions. Conclusions: This study highlights the disproportionate burden of CVDs associated with PM2.5 pollution, particularly in males and lower SDI regions, with significant regional disparities and projections indicating potential reversals in trends.
