Water quality-pipe deposit relationships in Midwestern lead pipes.
Article in AWWA water science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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 conventional wisdom of lead-scale solubility has been built over the years by geochemical solubility models, experimental studies, and field sampling utilizing multiple protocols. Rarely, have the mineral phases from scales formed in real-world drinking water lead service lines (LSLs) been compared to theoretical predictions. In this study, model predictions are compared to LSL scales from 22 drinking water distribution systems. The results show that only nine of the 22 systems had LSL scales that followed model predictions. The remaining systems had unpredictable scales some with unknown lead release characteristics demonstrating that predicting scale formation and lead release solely by models cannot be relied on in all cases to protect human health. Therefore, for many systems with LSLs, pilot studies with existing LSL scales will be necessary to evaluate and optimize corrosion control, and correspondingly, appropriate residential water sampling will be needed to demonstrate consistent and optimal system corrosion control.
