Pollution status and ecological risk of heavy metals in the soils of five land-use types in a typical sewage irrigation area, eastern China.

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
Sewage irrigation has been widespread in the water shortage area of eastern China and inevitably tends to result in heavy metal accumulation in soils. A total of 148 surface soil samples from five land-use types were collected in Longkou, a typical sewage irrigation area of China, and As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn concentrations were determined. The Nemerow index method and improved fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method were used to examine the pollution status of heavy metals. The potential ecological risk was evaluated by the Hakanson model by adjusting the assessment threshold, and its spatial distribution was interpolated using geostatistical techniques. As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn accumulated in different amounts in the five land-use types. Urban industrial land and mining land were moderately polluted, irrigated land was slightly polluted, orchards were minimally polluted, and bare land was at a safe level of pollution. Cd exhibited high percentages of strong and severe levels of potential ecological risks. For Cd, irrigated land, orchard, and bare land mainly presented moderate risks, whereas urban industrial land and mining land mainly presented high risks. The comprehensive ecological risk of the five heavy metals was at a severe level for all tested land-use classes except for bare land.
