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

Background: This study assessed occupational exposure to airborne hazardous substances-including total particulate matter (TPM), respirable suspended particles (RSPs), respirable crystalline silica (RCS), carbon monoxide (CO), and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs)-in traditional Korean pottery workplaces. Methods: Measurements were conducted in three representative settings: a small studio, a college facility, and an outdoor climbing kiln. Task-based sampling was performed for TPM, RSP, and RCS, while real-time monitoring captured temporal variations in nanoparticles, CO, and TVOCs. Results: TPM and RSP levels did not exceed the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) threshold-limit values (TLVs), but RCS exceeded the TLV of 25 μg/m Conclusion: These findings highlight the need for targeted control strategies, particularly in indoor studios and shaping/trimming areas, to reduce exposure to fine particles and gases in artisanal pottery production.
