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

This study proposes an efficient ex situ remediation method combining leaching with electrochemical treatment for Pb(II)-contaminated fine-grained soil. During the leaching stage, citric acid (CA) was identified as the optimal leaching agent, with the optimal washing conditions determined as: 0.1 mol/L CA (pH 3), liquid-to-solid ratio of 10, and a duration of 3 h. Under these conditions, the Pb(II) removal rate of 17.21% was achieved. Crucially, electrochemical enhancement was implemented during the filtration phase using a custom-designed vertical apparatus operated under constant current mode (2-4 mA/cm²), significantly improving remediation efficacy. Orthogonal experiments revealed current density as the dominant factor influencing Pb(II) removal. The optimal parameters (P
