Municipal wastewater treatment by the bioaugmentation of Bacillus sp. K5 within a sequencing batch reactor.
Article in PloS one, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Artificial municipal wastewater was treated successfully by the bioaugmentation of Bacillus sp. K5 capable of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) within a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). During the long-term operation, the bioaugmentation system exhibited an excellent and steady COD and NH4+-N removal without nitrite and nitrate accumulation. The average removal efficiency for COD and NH4+-N achieved to 98% and 95%, respectively. PCR-DGGE, SEM and FISH revealed that the introduced Bacillus sp. K5 should be an important functional strain and exerted a critical influence on the structure of microbial community. qPCR analysis indicated that the strain K5 facilitated aerobic nutrients removal capabilities and SND might be the primary pathway for the nitrogen removal in the SBR. Overall, the SBR system used in our study should be very promising for the future wastewater treatment.
