Early Environments, Lasting Effects: Air Pollution, Microbes, and Respiratory Infection Risk in Children.
Review in Pediatric pulmonology, 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
Despite advances in medical care, respiratory tract infections continue to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children worldwide. In addition to posing a healthcare burden, infections acquired early in life are associated with long-term detrimental effects on lung and immune function. This narrative review examines evidence on how environmental factors, such as air pollution and microbes, can affect children's susceptibility to upper and lower airway infections. Epidemiological studies correlate elevated concentrations of ambient and indoor air pollution with a higher frequency of acute upper and lower respiratory tract infections in pediatric populations. Experimental investigations of individual criteria air pollutants such as PM
