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

Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) has emerged as a major threat to health among older adults, yet the effects of air pollution and physical activity on CMM remain insufficiently investigated. This study aimed to examine the associations between air pollutant exposure, physical activity, and CMM risk, and to analyze the potential moderating and mediating roles of physical activity in the relationship between pollutants and CMM. This study utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) from 2015-2020, including 17,718 participants. We assessed exposure levels to PM
