Bibliometric analysis of studies involving e-waste: a critical review.
Review in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 correct destination of waste is an essential factor for sustainable development. Electronic waste, which is very toxic, is the type of waste with the highest rate of increase in its generation. For these reasons, the amount of research on this topic increases year by year, as shown by the literature review carried out by this study. This review aims to identify the main characteristics and proposals of the main study on electronic waste and verify how Brazil is inserted globally in the research on e-waste. Another objective is to suggest a path for researchers who want to start research on e-waste by identifying the keywords most used in the analyzed articles. The results evidenced that the most published countries on the subject are China, the USA, and India. Brazil is in a position of little prominence concerning its research production on the subject. Most of the central studies we analyzed use case study and literature review as the research method. Among the 44 articles analyzed, only one proposed a destination for e-waste. It highlights the need for more research focusing on the environmentally correct destination of e-waste. A good way to start a search on electronic waste is to use the keywords identified in this study, especially those used most frequently in the analyzed articles.
