Evidence of Genetic Fecal Marker Interactions between Water Column and Periphyton in Artificial Streams.
Article in ACS omega, 2018. 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
Periphyton is a complex mixture of algae, microbes, inorganic sediment, and organic matter that is attached to submerged surfaces in most flowing freshwater systems. This natural community is known to absorb pollutants from the water column, resulting in improved water quality. However, the role of periphyton in the fate and transport of genetic fecal markers suspended in the water column remains unclear. As application of genetic-based methodologies continues to increase in freshwater settings, it is important to identify any interactions that could potentially confound water quality interpretations. A 16 week indoor mesocosm study was conducted to simultaneously measure genetic fecal markers in the water column and in the associated periphyton when subject to wastewater source loading. Treated wastewater effluent was pumped directly from a treatment facility adjacent to the experimental stream facility. Inflow and outflow surface water grabs were paired with the collection of periphyton samples taken from the mesocosm substrates on a weekly basis. Samples were analyzed with three genetic fecal indicator quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction assays targeting
