Environmental drivers of influenza A and B: causal analysis and forecasting.
Article in BMC public health, 2026. 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
backgroundInfluenza is a globally important acute respiratory infectious disease, with types A and B being the most prevalent in humans. Both circulate annually but differ in timing, duration, and severity of epidemics. Understanding the environmental factors that influence influenza A and B provides new insights into effective prevention and management.
methodWeekly influenza surveillance data in Korea (2016-2023) were analyzed to quantify the causal influence of environmental factors, include meteorological factor: temperature, rainfall, wind speed, humidity, sunshine; air pollution factor: SO
resultGC was effective for type A, CCM for type B, and GOBI for influenza ALL. NO
conclusionsThis study highlights that applying multiple causal inference methods can provide a more comprehensive view of influenza transmission dynamics, as each method uncovers different types of causal signals. Common pollutants such as NO
