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 this study, we used GIS to assess heavy metal concentrations and their spatial variations in Beijing's suburban farmlands. The Beijing soil heavy metal background values (background values), the primary standard of the Chinese Environmental Quality Standard of Soil (primary standard), and the Environmental Quality Standard of Green Food Production Site (green standard) were used as the standards for assessing soil heavy metals. Results showed that the average Hg value was higher than that of the primary standard. The Ni and Pb values were lower than the corresponding background values. From the percentage area, the concentration is 100% area with As, more than 93% area with Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn, and 67% area with Cd and Hg, meeting the primary standard; over 97% area met the green standard. The calculated Nemerow index showed that less than 3% of the samples were slightly polluted, indicating good environmental quality. But the accumulated pollution of Cd and Hg was relatively high in some areas which was mainly affected by the high density of the industry. The farmland soils in Beijing suburbs were found to be suitable for farming, but a small percentage of the soils exceeded the green standard; Cd and Hg levels require special attention.
