Silicic protective surface films for pyrite oxidation suppression to control acid mine drainage at the source.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 tailings produce acid mine drainage (AMD) due to sulfide minerals, especially pyrite oxidation. AMD has caused serious pollution to the surrounding aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems because of its famous low pH value and high metal and sulfate concentration, which is an urgent environmental problem faced by the world's ore mining industry. Here, we show that silicic protective surface films can suppress the oxidation of pyrite-bearing tailings for AMD control at-source without pre-oxidation of pyrite and solution pH adjuster and buffer. We found that the silicic protective surface films formed by calcium silicate can inhibit the oxidation of pyrite-bearing tailings and reduce the production of AMD through chemical leaching tests. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectrometry (SEM/EDS) confirmed the presence of silicic protective surface films of calcium silicate on the surface of pyrite-bearing tailings.
