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

Hexavalent chromium from industrial residues is highly mobile in soil and can lead to the contamination of groundwater through runoff and leaching after rainfall. This paper focuses on the three-dimensional (3D) electrokinetic remediation (EKR) of chromium-contaminated soil from an industrial site. Activated carbon particles coupled with Fe ions (AC-Fe) were used as the third electrode. The optimum dose ratio of the electrode particles and remediation time were selected on the basis of single-factor experiments. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was carried out to explore the reduction of Cr(VI) on the surface of the electrode particles (AC-Fe). The results showed that AC-Fe had a positive effect on Cr(VI) reduction with a removal rate of 80.2%, which was achieved after 10 d by using a 5% dose of electrode particles. Finally, it was concluded that the removal mechanism combined the processes of electromigration, electrosorption/adsorption and reduction of Cr(VI) in the 3D EKR system.
