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 efficiency of anaerobic fermentation of waste activated sludge (WAS) under low-temperature condition is usually low. This work reported a new strategy to enhance the low-temperature fermentation of WAS by using aged refuse (AR), and explored the effect of initial pH 4 till pH 12 on the production of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) from AR-enhanced sludge fermentation. The results showed that AR improved WAS fermentation under low-temperature condition (10 °C), and the maximum accumulation of SCFA was 75.6 ± 3.5 mg/g, which was significantly higher than that of the blank (without AR). In addition, when the initial pH was 7, the maximum yield of methane was 102.2 ± 4.8 mL/g, whereas when the initial pH was 11, the maximum yield of SCFA was 85.6 ± 2.8 mg/g. Weak acid or alkali pH benefited hydrolysis and acidification of WAS, but inhibited methanogenesis. The release of NH
