Dynamics of Toxic and Essential Element Transfer in Soil-Plant-Animal Systems Under Industrial Contamination.
Article in Biology, 2026. 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
Industrial contamination can influence the transfer of toxic and essential elements through soil-plant-animal systems and may pose risks to food safety. This study aimed to determine whether contamination patterns in soil are reflected in forage vegetation and meat products and to evaluate trace-element behavior across interconnected components of the soil-plant-animal system. This study assessed the distribution and transfer of 12 elements (As, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn) in soil, forage vegetation, and meat products from five industrially affected areas of Central Kazakhstan. Element concentrations were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Soil contained the highest concentrations of most elements, confirming its role as the primary reservoir of contamination, whereas forage vegetation reflected local pollution patterns. The highest levels of contamination were generally observed in the industrial centers of Temirtau and Zhezkazgan, with Zhezkazgan exhibiting the most distinct element profile. Soil-to-forage transfer was most pronounced for Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn, with significant positive relationships between soil and forage concentrations (
