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

Over 100 million children worldwide suffer from mental distress, with incidence rates steadily increasing. However, the combined impacts of air pollution and non-optimal temperature on schoolchildren's mental health, as well as the disparities across urban and rural schools and between genders, remain insufficiently explored. Utilizing 95,658 mental distress records from school children in eastern China, we developed nine composite exposure scenarios to evaluate the mental health impacts of short-term (0-14 days) exposure to particulate matter (PM) air pollution (i.e., PM
