The relationship between chronic air pollution exposure, neighborhood environmental vulnerability, and adverse COVID-19 morbidities among hospitalized New York City residents.
Article in Environment international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionCommunities disproportionately burdened by adverse neighborhood-level social and structural factors may experience greater vulnerability to environmental exposures, contributing to health inequities, including adverse COVID-19. We assessed the effects of chronic air pollution on COVID-19 morbidities in NYC and examined whether these effects varied by neighborhood-level vulnerability.
methodsWe used NYC COVID-19 hospitalization records (3/1/2020-2/28/2021) and conducted analyses in the full sample and within hospital catchment. Chronic air pollution (particulate matter (PM
resultsFrom March to June 2020 (within hospital catchment), adjusted estimates generally suggest greater chronic NO DISCUSSION: Differences in neighborhood-level social and structural factors contribute to unequal health burdens associated with air pollution. Public health resources targeted toward neighborhoods with greater environmental vulnerability can encourage population-level pandemic preparedness.
