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

Tailings pond accidents frequently occur during an extended period, resulting in loss of life and property, wastage of resources, and environmental pollution. Relying on tailings pond engineering, this paper carried out sample particle fragmentation experiments and settling column experiments to explore the deposition distribution pattern of tailings in both horizontal and vertical directions as well as the impact of particle size distribution on the sedimentation stratification effect. The results show that the median particle size on the dry beach surface in the horizontal direction slowly decreased with the increase in the distance from the subdam. The particle size of tailings showed great fluctuations in the vertical direction, which gradually became finer with the increase in the depth overall. At the same time, saturated sedimentation experiments suggested the inconsistent variation rule with the field test, namely, coarse on the bottom and fine at the top, and the change in particle size greatly affected the tailing sedimentation stratification effect. With the increase in fine particle content in tailings, the appearance time of the water-sand interface was shortened to within 30 min, but the sedimentation and consolidation completion times were delayed to about 1400 min. The settling column results indicate that the increase in fine particle content gradually weakened the sedimentation stratification effect, and the sedimentation pattern transformed from independent sedimentation to floc-type average sedimentation, which led to the enhanced water-retaining property of the settled layer. This may lead to an increase in the saturation line and a decrease in the length of the dry beach, seriously affecting the safe operation of the tailings pond. The research results provide some theoretical guidance and basic data for analyzing the consolidation efficiency of tailings and the stability of the tailings pond.
