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

Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets are vital for numerous key technologies in strategic sectors such as renewable energy production, e-mobility, defense, and aerospace. Accordingly, the demand for rare earth elements (REEs) enormously increases in parallel to a significant uncertainty in their supply. Thus, research and innovative studies are focus on the investigation of sustainable solutions to the problem and a closed-loop value chain. The present study is based on two benign-by-design approaches aimed at decreasing the recycling loop span by preparing standardized batches of EoL Nd-Fe-B materials to be treated separately depending on their properties, as well as using mechanochemical method for waste processing. The previously reported benefits of both direct recycling and mechanochemistry include significant improvements in processing metrics, such as energy use, ecological impact, technology simplification, and cost reduction. Waste-sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets from motorbikes were collected, precisely sorted, selected, and pre-treated. The study presents a protocol of resource-efficient recycling through mechanochemical processing of non-oxidized sintered EoL magnets, involving the extraction of Nd
