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.

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
Hazardous wastes (HWs) is waste that has substantial or potential threats to public health or the environment. The aim this study is evaluation of quantitative and qualitative of hazardous waste in laboratories of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences (IUMS), Isfahan, Iran. In this data research, four out of ten faculties of IUMS that produce the highest amount of HWs were selected for collection of required data. The required information collected by using interview with laboratory staffs, completion of questionnaire, and refer to the available documents. The 33 laboratories (including 18 and 15 chemical and biological laboratories, respectively) and one clinic were selected. The obtained data showed that annually 2609.9 kg HWs generated in IUMS. The dentistry, public health, medical, and pharmacy faculties were produced 104, 266.6, 793.9, and 1445.4 kg of HW per year, respectively that they were including 4%, 10%, 31%, and 55% in the total amount of generated HW. According to the acquired result, to protect the health of the environment, IUMS must establish a comprehensive solid waste management programs for prevention and reduction, higher rates of recycling, and managing HWs in all faculties.
