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
The increasing demand for rare earth elements (REEs) necessitates the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly leaching methods. This study investigates the use of biological pretreatment to improve metal recovery from REE ore obtained from the Mushgia Khudag deposit. Characterization of the ore revealed a total REE content of 6.99%, with X-ray diffraction analysis identifying calcite and apatite as the dominant minerals, while REEs were primarily found in the forms of monazite and parisite. Experimental results demonstrated that ore pre-treated with a mixed thiobacteria culture (Tmix) achieved a 1.40-fold increase in metal recovery compared to direct acid leaching. Additionally,
