Sustainable use of plastic brick from waste PET plastic bottle as building block in Rohingya refugee camp: a review.
Review 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 10 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
Bangladesh is 10th among the major plastic waste contributor countries of the globe. Throughout the world, plastic waste disposal is a major concern since it is being nonbiodegradable in nature and hazardous, because of its potential harmful effect on human health and to the environment. Various studies have shown that waste PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottle filled with sand or other inorganic materials can serve as a useful building material where plastic waste management or recycling process is not very effective and particularly, in low-income communities. Plastic brick use in existing Rohingya refugee camp and newly proposed displacement camp in the coast island-Bhasan Char-as construction material to build new shelters, can be a sustainable use and management of country's plastic waste, and a feasible solution against the shelter issues of Rohingya people. The vulnerability due to heavy wind, monsoon rains, cyclones, and the gaps and lack in funding to build new rigid and safe shelters can be effectively mitigated by using this low-cost, environment-friendly plastic brick as building block in refugee camps.
