Associations between wildfire smoke exposure and health-related quality of life: findings from the Lovelace Smokers Cohort.
Article in Respiratory research, 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
backgroundThe impact of wildfire smoke (WFS) on air quality across the contiguous US has become geographically widespread. However, the effects of WFS exposure on psychometric measures of mental and physical health remain largely unknown.
objectivesTo assess the associations between WFS PM
methodsThe St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) and the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) were administered to participants in the Lovelace Smokers Cohort in New Mexico to assess psychometric health measures in the past 4 weeks. WFS estimates were calculated against Albuquerque metropolitan area for 7-, 15-, 30-, and 60-d prior to questionnaire completion. The associations between exposure and health measures were assessed using linear models.
resultsAssociations were observed for all psychometric measures with WFS PM
conclusionsExposure to WFS was associated with worse SGRQ and SF-36 scores, with notable differences in temporal patterns between mental and physical health measures. Our findings also underscore the importance of source-specific risk assessment for air pollution.
