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

The combustion of solid waste remains an understudied global challenge due to difficulty in monitoring these types of fires. Furthermore, the health and environmental impacts of waste fires are disproportionately felt by rural and Indigenous communities. To address this gap, we characterized fires at landfills, unregulated disposal sites, and recycling facilities using NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) and high spatial-temporal-resolution satellite imagery from PlanetScope for 2019-2024; we also evaluated spatial and temporal increases in particulate matter (PM) concentrations concurrent with fire events and IoT ground sensing systems in a complementary approach. Results indicated that 35% of identified fires were detected by FIRMS, 52% by PlanetScope products, and elevated PM
