Atmospheric Deposition of Organic Pollutants: A Comprehensive Review of Sampling and Analytical Methodologies.
Review in Analytical science advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to their long-range atmospheric transport and accumulation. Despite international regulatory efforts, such as the Stockholm Convention and the EU's new air quality directives, data on deposition fluxes remain sparse and highly variable due to methodological inconsistencies and analytical limitations. Key challenges arise from the trace levels of target analytes, the complexity of environmental matrices and the absence of standardized sampling and analytical protocols. Overcoming these limitations is crucial for establishing robust monitoring systems and supporting evidence-based risk assessments. This review highlights recent developments and methodological innovations in the study of bulk atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants. Key areas of focus include (1) a critical evaluation of sampling devices and strategies, with an emphasis on bottle-funnel and passive sampler designs that influence data quality, (2) advances in extraction and sample preparation techniques, including liquid-liquid and solid-phase extraction tailored to trace-level environmental contaminants, (3) identification of key analytical constraints and variability in recovery efficiencies across different compound classes and analytical workflows, (4) a synthesis of over 160 peer-reviewed studies offering a comparative framework for future monitoring campaigns and harmonization of analytical approaches.
