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

backgroundGlobal warming has raised the earth's temperature approximately 1°C compared to the pre-industrial level. Particulate matter is one pathway through which climate change affects health. This study aimed to estimate the attribution of PM

methodsOur data includes daily non-accidental mortality counts, mean humidity, mean PM

resultsThe mediating effects of PM

conclusionWe observed that part of the health risk from increasing temperature is attributable to PM
