Health risk assessment of air pollution in Xinjiang, Northwest China.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Air pollution disrupts ecological stability, threatens public health, and increases the risk of associated diseases. This study analyzed the spatiotemporal variations of six criteria pollutants from 2015 to 2024 in Xinjiang and their associated health risks using air quality index (AQI), aggregate air quality index (AAQI) and health risk indices (equivalent health risk-based index (EHAQI) and excess risk (ER)). The study was divided into two periods for comparative analysis: period one (2015-2019) and period two (2020-2024). Results showed that PM₁₀ dominated as the primary pollutant, particularly in Southern Xinjiang. Single-pollutant metrics underestimated combined health impacts of the six pollutants. Environmental policies and lockdowns significantly reduced SO₂ (47.9%), CO (41.7%), PM₂.₅ (19.9%), NO₂ (16.4%), and PM₁₀ (12.0%) compared with Period one. The O₃ growth rate in Northern Xinjiang exceeded that in Southern Xinjiang by 3.7%. Health risk assessments revealed that PM₁₀-driven excess risk (ER) accounted for 80% of the total health burdens in Southern Xinjiang. While in Northern Xinjiang, NO₂ dominated ER, surpassing PM
