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
Surface soil in oil exploration area always contains high contents of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and n-alkanes. To investigate the migration possibility of PAHs and n-alkanes from surface through aquitard and aquiclude to aquifer, the distribution, together with the source apportionment using several indicators, such as composition pattern, fluoranthene/(fluoranthene+pyrene) (Flt/(Flt+Pyr)), anthracene/(anthracene+phenanthrene) (Ant/(Ant+PA)), and the carbon preference index (CPI) of n-alkanes, in a 30-m-deep soil-sediment profile were studied. Results showed that there were considerable PAHs and n-alkanes not only in surface soil but also in aquitard, aquiclude, and aquifer sediments. The PAHs and n-alkanes in surface soil strongly suggested petroleum pollution. The high molecular weight PAHs and the n-alkanes with both long and short chains could not migrate into deep sediments as their sources in surface soil and deep sediment were different. Whereas the aquitard and aquiclude had significant input of low molecular weight PAHs (LMWPAHs) from petroleum sources, the LMWPAHs in confined aquifer suggested pyrogenic sources. Therefore, LMWPAHs migrated from surface to aquitard and aquiclude, but did not cause aquifer pollution in Jianghan Oil Field. However, the high mobility of LMWPAHs from surface to aquitard and aquiclude suggested that the long-term risk of groundwater pollution from oil exploration should be concerned.
