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

One of the most key tasks of municipalities is to take the necessary measures to quickly, optimally and correctly collect the waste generated by citizens within the city. In addition, the production of large volume of waste in the city and improper management can lead to many environmental issues. The present study was implemented in Tehran to analyze the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) of food waste management and developing its strategies. Twenty-nine experts in the field of waste and environmental management were selected and studied using purposive snowball sampling method. In this study, SWOT analysis was used to develop strategies. After examining strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, a total of 9 defense strategies were extracted using the internal and external factors assessment matrix. In addition, quantitative strategic planning matrix was used to prioritize strategies, among which " strengthen citizen participation in the field of waste management" and "realization of diversification into the financial and revenue resources of the waste management system" strategies were ranked first and second, respectively. Finally, some suggestions were made in the form of action plans to implement the identified strategies.
