Effect of bioavailable arsenic fractions on the collembolan community in an old abandoned mine waste.

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
Mine waste from abandoned mines poses a risk to soil ecosystems due to the dispersion of arsenic (As) in the mine waste to the nearby soil environment. Because the bioavailability of As varies depending on the As chemical fraction and exposure conditions, chemical assessment of As fractions in soil around mine waste is essential to understand their impact on soil ecosystem. Here, six sites around the mine waste were selected for investigating toxic effects of As-contaminant soil on Collembola community. To measure the As chemical fraction in soil and bioavailability, Wenzel sequential extraction employed. Meanwhile, the collembolans that live in each sampling site were identified at the species level, and the characteristics and composition of the collembola community were investigated. The mobility fraction (F1 + F2 + F3; MF) was related to the risk to the collembolan community, and the adverse impact of high MF appeared to lead to a decrease in abundance, richness, and Shannon index. According to non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis, F1, F2, F3, and pH were shown as the significant factor explaining the NMDS space. Especially, the sampling site with the highest concentration of F3 showed statistically different species composition from the other sites. In the case of As-contaminated soil around the old mine waste, the toxic effects of the remaining F3 in soil, as well as that of F1 and F2, should be fully considered. This study suggested that collembolan community could be used for understanding the impact of bioavailable As fraction in the old abandoned mine area.
