Comprehensive Multi-compartment Sampling for Quantification of Long-Term Accumulation of PAHs in Soils.
Article in ACS environmental Au, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Long-term accumulation in the soils of ubiquitous organic pollutants such as many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) depends on deposition from the atmosphere, revolatilization, leaching, and degradation processes such as photolysis and biodegradation. Quantifying the phase distribution and fluxes of these compounds across environmental compartments is thus crucial to understand the long-term contaminant fate. The gas-phase exchange between soil and atmosphere follows chemical fugacity gradients that can be approximated by gas-phase concentrations, yet which are difficult to measure directly. Thus, passive sampling, measured sorption isotherms, or empirical relationships to estimate sorption distribution have been combined in this study to determine aqueous (or gas) phase concentrations from measured bulk concentrations in soil solids. All these methods have their strengths and weaknesses but agree within 1 order of magnitude except for
