The Respiratory Effects of Jet Fuel Exposure: A Fit-for-Purpose Systematic Literature Review and Evidence Synthesis.
Synthesis in Journal of occupational and environmental medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
objectiveJet fuel inhalation represents one of the most significant exposures among service members; however, health outcomes are unclear, and the processes linking exposures and respiratory effects are undefined.
methodsA systematic literature review of human, animal, and mechanistic studies was conducted to assess and synthesize the scientific evidence on the adverse respiratory effects of jet fuel exposure.
resultsAnimal studies provided moderate evidence that jet fuel inhalation resulted in adverse effects through cytotoxicity, tissue damage, inflammation, airway remodeling, and lung function changes, which was corroborated by mechanistic data. This was further supported by slight epidemiologic evidence that jet fuel exposure is associated with increased respiratory symptoms and disease.
conclusionsEvidence indicates that jet fuel exposure is likely to produce adverse respiratory effects, which may have important implications for exposed service members and veterans.
