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

backgroundAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease affected by environmental factors. However, the influence of residential environment space on AD has not been well understood. This study aimed to investigate the potential associations between environment space with AD.

methodsThis study analyzed data from 422,899 participants from the UK Biobank, with 2,462 incident cases of AD documented over a median follow-up of 12.45 years. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the association between residential environment space and the risk of developing AD.

resultsThe risk of AD was negatively associated with the percentage of green space, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.81 (95% CI: 0.72, 0.91) for the highest quartile within a 300 m buffer. In contrast, the risk was positively associated with exposure to blue space, with a HR of 1.33 (95% CI: 1.19, 1.49) for the highest quartile within a 300 m buffer and 1.62 (95% CI: 1.45, 1.80) within a 1000 m buffer. Joint analysis indicated that participants with high exposure to green space and low exposure to blue space exhibited the lowest risk of developing AD, compared to those with low exposure to green space and high exposure to blue space [300 m buffer: 0.50 (0.31, 0.82); 1000 m buffer: 0.61 (0.46, 0.81)].

conclusionHigher exposure to green space was found to be protective against AD, while higher exposure to blue space may increase the risk.
