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

Heavy metal pollution in soils amended with biosolids has been a serious problem worldwide for clean food production. Laboratory and greenhouse experiments were performed to assess the impact of water treatment residual nanoparticles (nWTRs), at different application rates (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3%), on immobilization and phytoavailability of Cd and Pb to canola (Brassica napus L.) plants in soils amended with biosolids spiked with three different rates of Cd or Pb. Application of nWTRs significantly increased the residual fractions of Cd and Pb in metal-spiked biosolid-amended soil and thereby increased the immobilization of Cd and Pb in the amended soil. The greatest immobilization of Cd and Pb was exhibited at an application rate of 0.3% nWTRs. In addition, the application of nanoparticles to the biosolid-amended soil significantly increased canola grain yield and significantly decreased Cd and Pb phytoavailability due to immobilization of Cd and Pb in the contaminated soil. The results demonstrate, for the first time, the capability of nanoscale WTRs in stabilizing heavy metals in contaminated soils and restoring degraded agricultural land.
