Source attribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and dioxins in soil and dust following compound climate events in legacy-contaminated environmental justice areas.
Article in The Science of the total environment, 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
Communities with histories of industrial contamination may face heightened exposures when compound climate events interact with persistent organic pollutants. Limited multi-matrix data exist are available to evaluate how sequential wildfire and flood disturbances may influence contaminant distribution in environmental justice (EJ) communities. This study characterized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in nonresidential soil/sediment (n = 75), residential surface soil (n = 35), control soil (n = 24), and residential indoor dust (n = 35), and polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in selected 2-15 cm nonresidential and control soils, in the Globe-Miami area of Arizona, USA following the 2021 Telegraph and Mescal wildfires and subsequent flash floods. PAH diagnostic ratios classified 91-100% of samples across matrices as pyrogenic, while residential soils showed strong correlations among high molecular weight PAH co-correlations (r = 0.87-0.97) consistent with co-deposition/redistribution of combustion-derived particles.
