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

Thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) represent a serious health threat, yet the role of air pollution exposure on its development has been underexplored. Here we investigate the relationships between air pollutants and TAAD incidence. In a Cox's proportional hazards model, hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of TAAD for an interquartile range increase in air pollutants were 2.15 (1.96, 2.35) for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm (PM
