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

The temporal variation of sulfur and metals in core sediments off Kueishantao Islet, a hydrothermal vent site at northeastern Taiwan, was explored to elucidate the changes in submarine hydrothermal emanation over a centennial time scale. The discharge of acidic fluids containing abundant sulfides and dissolved metals results in different concentrations of sulfur and metal accumulating in deposited sediments. In addition to particle size and organic carbon affecting metal contents, the content of total sulfur (TS), which is regarded as an indicator of hydrothermalism, correlates positively and strongly with Fe and other metals; however, it correlates negatively with another index of hydrothermalism, the Al/(Al+Fe+Mn) ratio. The TS content in Core Ks2, the core closest to the vents, increased during 1950-1956, 1968-1970, 1982-1987, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, but decreased during 1967-1968, 1988-1990, and 1994-1995. The chronological changes in the TS concentration of Cores Ks3 and S2 were very similar to those of Core Ks2 within the aforementioned time spans. The numerous large earthquakes (ML > 5) and typhoons that affect northeastern Taiwan appear to influence hydrothermal emanation and determine the temporal variation of sulfur and metals in sediment cores.
