Long-term changes in chemical components in the meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis) in the formerly heavily polluted Eastern Sudetes Mountains.

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 Eastern Sudetes Mountains (Northern Moravia, Czech Republic) were among the most polluted regions of Europe due to toxic metal depositions and acid rain, until the desulfurization of emissions from coal power stations and reduction of heavy industry which took place in the 1990s. This study provides a comparison of data on the levels of calcium, lead, cadmium, and aluminum in soil, meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis) nestlings, and their available diet in 1994-1999 and in 2017-2019. The soil pH and exchangeable amount of calcium and lead increased slightly. The concentration of calcium in potential prey (invertebrates) increased slightly, and lead and cadmium levels decreased. The amount of calcium and lead in nestling bodies decreased in 2017-2019, while cadmium and aluminum levels remained unchanged after accounting for nestling age. The age of nestlings had an effect on aluminum only, when its content decreased with age. The principal component analysis revealed close association between calcium and lead. The consequences of recent leaching of basic cations, mainly calcium, and increasing bioavailability of lead in soils for future reproduction of the meadow pipit are discussed.
