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

Scandium (Sc) extraction from iron and aluminum waste is a promising technique for the recycling and valorization of laterite nickel ore waste. Iron and aluminum waste is one source of scandium during preparation of nickel and cobalt hydroxide by wet smelting of laterite nickel ore. The content of Sc is notably higher than that of the raw materials, as the element is enriched in the iron and aluminum waste. As the main element in the waste samples, Al exhibits significant interference in the selective separation of Sc. In this work, taking the production line for laterite nickel ore wet leaching as the research object, the trend and distribution of trace Sc were systematically analyzed. A series of leaching experiments was conducted under varied conditions of leaching pH (2.6-3.5), leaching time (0.5-2.0 h), volume of evaporated concentrated solution (0.2-1.0 L), mass of waste added (200-800 g), reaction temperature (240-260 °C), reaction time (0.5-1.5 h), H
