A dataset on metal-related production activities and their socio-environmental impacts in Canada.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Metal-related production activities are essential to the low-carbon energy transition but can generate significant social and environmental impacts that influence project success and public acceptance. The MetalliCan dataset compiles and structures data from 23 open datasets and over 150 reports from more than 40 companies in metal-related sectors, offering a high-resolution, site-specific foundation for sustainability impact analysis in Canada. It was constructed following a systematic and reproducible procedure to integrate heterogeneous data sources at the finest granularity possible and ensure traceability and interoperability. MetalliCan covers 48 commodities and 270 domestic sites including active mines, smelters and refineries, as well as advanced projects. It contains information on environmental dimensions-e.g. greenhouse gases, pollutants, water, land, material use and waste-and social dimensions-e.g. affected population, conflicts, protected lands, future water risk and climate conditions. The code and dataset are openly accessible and can be exploited for industrial ecology research, such as life-cycle assessment, material flow analysis and environmental-extended input-output, as well as criticality, social and prospective studies.
