1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

In situ precipitation of magnetite and other minerals potentially sequesters dissolved arsenic (As) in contaminated aquifers. This study examines As retention and transport in aquifer sediments using a multistage column experiment in which magnetite and other minerals formed from added nitrate and ferrous iron (Fe). Sediments were collected from the Dover Municipal Landfill Superfund site. Prior to nitrate-Fe(II) addition, As was not effectively retained within the sediments in the column. The combination of nitrate (10 mM) and Fe(II) (4 mM), resulted in mineral precipitation and rapidly decreased effluent As concentrations to <10 μg L(-1). Mineralogical analyses of sectioned replicate columns using sequential extractions, magnetic susceptibility and X-ray absorption spectroscopy indicate that magnetite and ferrihydrite formed in the column following nitrate-Fe(II) addition. This magnetite persisted in the column even as conditions became reducing, whereas ferrihydrite was transformed to more stable Fe oxides. This magnetite incorporated As into its structure during precipitation and subsequently adsorbed As. Adsorption to the minerals kept effluent As concentrations <10 μg L(-1) for more than 100 pore volumes despite considerable Fe reduction. The results indicate that it should be feasible to produce an in situ reactive filter by nitrate-Fe(II) injection.
