The effect of air pollution on chronic liver disease and the modifying effect of physical activity: a nationwide study from CHARLS.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThe relationship between ambient air pollution and chronic liver disease (CLD), and whether physical activity (PA) modifies this association, remains unclear. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe analyzed 17,708 middle-aged and older adults from the 2013 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Individual-level exposures to CO, O
resultsIn fully adjusted models, higher pollutant levels were associated with increased CLD risk: CO (OR 1.13, 95% CI 1.04-1.19, p = 0.025), O
