Impact of exposure of particulate matters on stroke risk: exploring the influence of physical activity among middle-aged and older adults in China.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Background: Particulate matter is increasingly recognized as a critical environmental risk factor for stroke, particularly among older populations. Although physical activity confers substantial cerebrovascular benefits, it remains unclear how it might mediate or moderate the adverse influence of different sizes of particulate matter on stroke risk. Methods: A prospective cohort analysis was conducted using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, which enrolled adults aged ≥45 years from diverse regions across mainland China. Annual mean concentrations of PM Results: Of 13,573 participants, 540 (4.0%) experienced an incident stroke during follow-up. After full adjustment for covariates, each 10 μg/m3 increment in PM Conclusions: Greater exposure to PM
