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

The San Diego-Tijuana border region has experienced rapid urbanization and industrial growth with unmitigated environmental consequences. For nearly a century, the Tijuana River (TR) has carried untreated sewage and industrial waste into the United States, contributing to a long-recognized and ongoing water pollution crisis. However, the impact of this pollution on air quality has been almost entirely overlooked until very recently. Analysis of low-cost air sensor data reveals that gases released from the polluted TR directly contribute to the formation of fine aerosols, increasing PM
