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

Abrasion of the brake lining of automobiles is one of the main antimony (Sb) sources on the road. Therefore, the road effluent possibly supplies Sb to the combined sewer collection system. However, Sb in road-sewer systems has attracted little concern, although heavy metals such as copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) in sewer water have been studied by many previous authors. We investigated the effect of road effluent on Sb in the combined sewer water by collecting road effluent, road dust, and sewer water under rainy and dry weather conditions. Sb in road effluent showed a significantly higher concentration than the other types of samples, and the Sb concentration in sewer during wet weather was significantly higher than that during dry weather. Furthermore, the Sb concentration in sewer water decreased with time during a wash-off event. Clear positive relationships between Sb and Cu and between Sb and Ba in both road effluent and road dust extract indicate the effect of brake abrasion because the brake lining contains Cu, Sb, and Ba in high concentrations. Approximately 42% of Sb load occurred during the wash-off event, while the loads of Cu and Ba were much less. Unlike Cu and Ba, we conclude that Sb in combined sewer water largely depends on road effluent in wet weather due to the wash-off of road dust, which is probably associated with brake lining abrasion.
