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
Fluorine in phosphogypsum (PG) poses a persistent leaching risk, and PG-based cemented paste backfill (CPB) offers a practical option for in situ stabilization. In this study, fluorine transformation from phosphate rock (PR) to PG and further to CPB was quantified using acid dissolution for total fluorine (TF) determination and sequential extraction for fluorine speciation. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine statistical relationships among fluorine fractions. TF decreased progressively during wet-process phosphoric acid production, PG stockpiling, and CPB preparation. However, the proportion of mobile fluorine increased from PR to CPB, indicating incomplete reversal of process-induced fluorine activation. CPB immobilized most mobile fractions, increasing the residual fraction to 88.83-97.17% of TF and achieving fluorine transfer efficiencies of 93.59-94.75%. Speciation results showed marked decreases in water-soluble fluorine (Ws-F) and exchangeable fluorine (Ex-F) in CPB, while Pearson correlation analysis further suggested strong statistical associations among Ws-F, Ex-F, and other fractions, suggesting potential interconversion pathways under alkaline, Ca-rich CPB conditions. Nevertheless, a Ws-F-dominated mobile fraction remained in CPB, accounting for 2.83-11.19% of TF, and governed the long-term leaching risk. Therefore, assessing CPB based on process-oriented fluorine speciation, rather than merely on TF content, is critical for optimizing PG-based CPB formulations and achieving the safe reutilization of PG.
