Comparative study on the accumulation of heavy metals in different organs of tench (Tinca tinca L. 1758) and plerocercoids of its endoparasite Ligula intestinalis.
Article in Parasitology research, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Concentrations of heavy metals (Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cr, Pb and Cd) in some organs of tench and tissues of its parasite found in Kovada Lake (Turkey) were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrophotometry and subsequently compared with the data from sediments and water. Only Cu, Fe, Zn and Mn were detected in water, sediment, plerocercoids of Ligula intestinalis and fish samples, while levels of Cr, Pb and Cd were below the detection limits. Four elements were found at higher concentrations in the plerocercoid than in different fish tissues (muscle, liver and gill), being 1.6-37.4 times higher than that measured in muscle, liver and gill. Significant positive (for Cu) and negative (for Fe, Zn and Mn) correlations were found between the quantity of heavy metals in water and tissues of L. intestinalis plerocercoids while there were significant positive (for Cu and Zn) and negative (for Fe and Mn) correlations between the quantity of heavy metals in bottom sediment and tissues of L. intestinalis plerocercoids. Cestodes were found suitable to reflect the amount heavy metals in sediments, providing more reliable information about the actual pollution of the reservoirs.
