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

Background: Air pollution and altitudes are important obesogenic environmental risks. No studies have examined the influence of the co-exposure of these two risks and Body Mass Index (BMI). We discuss the concentration-response (C-R) relationships and potential mechanisms between nine air pollution, altitudes, and BMI. Methods: Data from 38,617 individuals aged 18-90 years in the China Family Panel Survey were used. Nine air exposure variables-Particulate Matter 2.5 (PM Results: Four air pollution-PM Conclusions: Co-exposure of air pollution and altitude had a complex influence on individual BMI. Maintaining a healthy environment is important for the joint prevention and control of obesity.
