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 mechanisms by which temperature exposure affects health outcomes remain unclear. In this study, we conducted three repeated measurements (2020-2022) by collecting self-sampled volumetric dry blood spots (DBSs) from 807 participants from the Swedish BAMSE cohort (mean age 25.9 years). By estimating individual-address level daily temperature using a high-resolution spatiotemporal model, we found that 58 (16%) of the 365 studied inflammation-related proteins were significantly associated with short-term exposure to ambient temperatures. The impact of temperature exposure was modified by sex, smoking, asthma, and concurrent exposure to air pollution. The temperature-associated proteins were linked to lung function, blood pressure, and HbA1c with validations in the UK Biobank. Furthermore, peak temperature exposure (both cold and heat) was associated with significantly increased proteomic age acceleration. Our findings suggest that ambient temperature exposure may cause adverse health effects through perturbating inflammation-related proteins.
