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

Removal of iron from pregnant leach solutions (PLS) is a critical yet challenging step in hydrometallurgical processing prior to the recovery of valuable metals. Conventional iron removal by precipitation of ferric compounds such as goethite or jarosite generates large amounts of solid waste. Solvent extraction (SX) offers an alternative route, enabling subsequent recovery of iron as a marketable product. In this study, an innovative SX-based iron removal process was investigated. Ferric iron was first extracted from aqueous solution into an organic phase containing the carboxylic acid extractant Versatic Acid 10 (VA10). The loaded organic phase (5-16 g Fe per L) was then subjected to direct reduction using hydrogen gas to precipitate iron. The precipitation-stripping rate was enhanced by adding a base (Mg(OH)
