Personal Exposure Assessment of Respirable Particulate Matter Among University Students Across Microenvironments During the Winter Season Using Portable Monitoring Devices.
Article in Toxics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Respirable particulate matter (RPM) is a major indoor environment concern posing direct health risks. Localized data on RPM exposure remains scarce across different microenvironments in occupational and educational settings. Students in educational settings are increasingly vulnerable to RPM, specifically in the winter season when more activities are carried out indoors and meteorological conditions elevate the PM levels. This study was conducted to assess the personal exposure of university students to RPM within their frequently visited microenvironments (MEs). Forty volunteers were selected, and their exposure to RPM was measured by specifically monitoring their particle mass count (PMC) and particle number count (PNC) in commonly identified MEs. Calibrated air pumps with nylon cyclones and a Dylos DC 1100 Pro were used for this purpose. We found that the mean RPM concentration for personal exposure was 251 µg/m
