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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundIndoor air quality (IAQ) plays a critical role in respiratory health, particularly among individuals with asthma. This study evaluated the feasibility of collecting and characterizing IAQ in the homes of Black adults with uncontrolled asthma in New York City.

methodsHome environmental audits were conducted at the time that ultrasonic personal air sampling (UPAS v2+) devices were deployed, which continuously collected both time-resolved and integrated air samples over an initial target runtime of two-weeks based on the amp-hours of the external battery. Post-trial interviews were conducted.

resultsThirty devices were successfully deployed and returned; all but five provided sufficient data for analysis for getting a multi-day exposure estimates defined as more than 6 consecutive days of data) for analysis. Average runtime was 13.4 days and mean gravimetric PM

conclusionsElevated indoor PM

trial registrationThis feasibility study was conducted in NYC, New York, as an administrative supplement to a randomized controlled trial (RCT) (#NCT05685381; registered 1/5/23).
