Association of tailpipe-related and nontailpipe-related air pollution exposure with neuroimaging outcomes.
Article in Environmental epidemiology (Philadelphia, Pa.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Long-term exposure to air pollution may be related to neural atrophy or cerebrovascular pathology. A major source of air pollution is vehicle traffic, which is modifiable. In this study, we estimated associations between four traffic-related air pollutants and five neuroimaging biomarkers. Methods: We analyzed data from a subset (N = 817) of participants in the Chicago Health and Aging Project (1993-2012) who underwent a structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan between 2002 and 2012. Using previously developed air pollution models, we predicted participant-level exposure to the tailpipe pollutants oxides of nitrogen (NO Results: Exposure to NO Conclusion: These results are not indicative of large adverse associations between traffic-related air pollution exposures and indicators of neural atrophy or cerebrovascular pathology.
