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
The national soil risk screening values (RSVs) and intervention values (RIVs) have limited applicability in karst regions with high geochemical backgrounds, often leading to unnecessary remediation efforts. To address this issue, 125 paired soil-rice samples from Gejiu-Mengzi, Yunnan Province, China, were analyzed. We found that the RSV misclassification rates (mainly false positives) for cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) in neutral-to-alkaline paddies (pH > 6.5) ranged from 52.0-66.4%. Soil iron/manganese (Fe/Mn) oxides and pH were identified as critical factors controlling Cd/As bioavailability in rice. This decoupling is primarily governed by soil alkalinity and abundant Fe/Mn oxides, which immobilize metals despite high total concentrations. This also explains why there is such a high rate of false positives. By integrating multiple linear regression and species sensitivity distribution (SSD) models, we derived regional safety thresholds (STs) and hazard thresholds (HTs). The newly established STs (Cd: 4.54-7.12 mg·kg
