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

Cultural customs often condition solid waste management, especially in developing countries. The decomposition of solid waste depends on climatic conditions and is related to geomorphology and anthropogenic practices. Leachate generated in landfills can migrate superficially and underground, contaminating soils and aquifers. Knowing the level of contaminant load in leachate is important for proper solid waste management. However, in the Andean regions of Peru, there is scarce data on the polluting potential of leachates. This research aimed to determine the Leachate Pollution Index (LPI) according to the sub-indexes of organic, inorganic, and heavy metals from landfills in the high Andean regions of Peru. Physical, chemical, and microbiological parameters were evaluated in fresh and retained leachate samples, in both dry and rainy seasons, from two landfills located at around 3000 m of altitude. The results showed high contamination levels, particularly in BOD
