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

Nitrate as a diffusive agricultural contaminant has been causing substantial groundwater quality deterioration worldwide. In situ groundwater remediation techniques using permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) have attracted increasing interest. Particularly, PRBs based on biological denitrification, using the organic substrate as a biostimulator, and chemical nitrate reduction, using zero-valent iron (ZVI) as a reductant, are two major PRB approaches for groundwater denitrification. This review paper analyzed the published studies over the past 10 years (2010-2020) using laboratory, modeling, and field-scale approaches to explore the performance and mechanisms of these two types of PRBs. Important factors affecting the denitrification efficiencies as well as the influential mechanisms were discussed. Several research gaps have been identified and further research needs are discussed in the end.
