The Stockholm Convention at a Crossroads: Questionable Nominations and Inadequate Compliance Threaten Its Acceptance and Utility.
Review in Environmental science & technology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Twenty years since coming into force, the Stockholm Convention has become a "living" global agreement that has allowed for the addition of substances that are likely, as a result of their long-range environmental transport (LRET), to lead to significant adverse effects. The recent listing of the phenolic benzotriazole UV-328 in Annex A and a draft nomination of three cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes (cVMS) for Annex B draw attention to the fact that many chemicals are subject to LRET and that this can lead to questionable nominations. The nomination of UV-328 and the draft nomination of cVMS also raise the spectre of regrettable substitutions. At the same time, atmospheric monitoring across the globe reveals that environmental releases of several unintentionally produced POPs listed in Annex C, such as hexachlorobenzene and hexachlorobutadiene, are continuing unabated, highlighting shortcomings in the enforcement of the minimum measures required under Article 5. There is also no evidence of efforts to substitute a chemical whose use has been known for three decades to unintentionally produce polychlorinated biphenyls. These developments need to be rectified to safeguard the long-term viability and acceptance of a global treaty of undeniable importance.
