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

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is generally managed via active or passive treatment strategies. Between the two, passive treatment is explored as a more sustainable alternative, especially for abandoned and legacy mines due to their low energy, manpower and material requirements. Recent studies of the authors have explored the use of limestone and waste materials like low-grade ores (LGO), fly ash (FA), and concrete wastes (CW) for AMD treatment and found that although these materials generated alkalinity individually, they could only partially remove sulfate (SO
