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

Due to minimal material use and low-cost processing, next-generation thin film solar cells represent a promising alternative to traditional crystalline silicon solar cells. Among these, metal-halide perovskite solar cells have seen significant improvements in power conversion efficiency and are now on the verge of market entry. However, most efficient and stable perovskite solar cells contain lead in the perovskite absorber layer, along with indium and silver in their electrodes. This study demonstrates an environmentally benign recycling process for recovering all three elements from end-of-life perovskite solar cells. In short, the process consists of mechanical dismantling (milling), aqueous extraction/purification of PbI
