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

Some urban areas have more litter than others. Understanding the reason for this is important not only for dealing with urban littering but also for marine water quality because approximately 80% of the world's marine litter originates on land. This study aimed to better understand the quality and quantity of litter on sidewalks along with the sampling site's socio-economic attributes to better discern why some areas have more/different litter than others and what, if any, are the implications for a more tailored waste management strategy. We surveyed twice each of the 35 sites we selected from the Lower Passaic River watershed and the related Harbor Estuary within New Jersey, U.S.A. A total of 28,431 litter items were recorded with a total mass and volume of 245.8 kg and 4.7 m
