Measuring the exposome: a practical guide for using wearable passive samplers to assess environmental influences.
Article in Exposome, 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
Wearable passive samplers present tremendous opportunity for measuring the exposome. These tools offer a user-friendly and cost-effective approach to assess personal exposure, enabling access to remote communities and under-researched vulnerable populations. Use of these wearable devices has gained popularity over the past two decades but before these tools can be adopted for routine use in large-scale health studies, they require standardization to ensure data reproducibility. With the objective of harmonizing wearable passive sampler use, this paper serves as a guide to available technologies (Fresh Air samplers, commercial silicone wristbands, custom silicone bands, and the silicone brooch) and best practices for assessing exposure to environmental chemicals. We discuss the optimal duration to wear these sampling tools, essential quality control and quality assurance measures, chemical analysis approaches, and strategies to interpret measured exposures. We also propose minimum guidelines for sample collection and reporting data to foster measurement standardization and secondary analysis. Strategies to improve data transparency through harmonization will enable comparability of the comprehensive measures of the exposome using wearable passive samplers.
