Understanding Aerosol-Mediated Disease Transmission.
Review in ACS central science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This Outlook aims to update the longstanding treatment of airborne disease transmission through an interdisciplinary lens combining biology, surface chemistry, and aerosol physics, drawing parallels between environmental and human-generated infectious aerosols and examining their effects on human and ecosystem health. By recasting the lung surface as a dynamic interface akin to the ocean surface, this Outlook illustrates the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to elucidate the mechanisms of disease transmission at a depth that enables practical mitigation strategies. The urgency of this analysis is motivated by the evolving nature of airborne pathogens of concern, such as SARS-CoV-2 and influenza, and the global impact of dynamic environments on the poorly understood airborne microbiome.
