Occurrence, survival, and persistence of human adenoviruses and F-specific RNA phages in raw groundwater.

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
Detection of specific genetic markers can rapidly identify the presence of enteric viruses in groundwater. However, comparison of stability characteristics between genetic and infectivity markers is necessary to better interpret molecular data. Human adenovirus serotype 2 (HAdV2), in conjunction with MS2 phages or GA phages, was spiked into raw groundwater microcosms. Viral stability was periodically assessed by both infectivity and real-time PCR methods. The results of this yearlong study suggest that adenoviruses have the most stable persistence profile and an ability to survive for a long time in groundwater. According to a linear regression model, infectivity reductions of HAdV2 ranged from 0.0076 log(10)/day (4°C) to 0.0279 log(10)/day (20°C) and were significantly lower than those observed for phages. No adenoviral genome degradation was observed at 4°C, and the reduction was estimated at 0.0036 log(10)/day at 20°C. Occurrence study showed that DNA of human adenoviruses could be observed in groundwater from a confined aquifer (7 of the 60 samples were positive by real-time PCR), while no fecal indicators were detected. In agreement with the persistence of genetic markers, the presence of adenoviral DNA in groundwater may be misleading in term of health risk, especially in the absence of information on the infective status.
