1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Phytoremediation has been proposed as a potential biotechnological strategy to remediate effluents before their release into the environment. The use of common aquatic plant species, such as macrophytes (e.g., Lemna spp.) as a cleanup solution has been proposed decades ago. However, the effectiveness of such processes must be assessed by analyzing the toxicity of resulting effluents, for the monitoring of wastewater quality. To attain this purpose, this work intended to quantify the efficacy of a Lemna-based wastewater phytoremediation process, by analyzing toxicological effects of domestic and textile effluents. The toxic effects were measured in Lemna minor (same organisms used in the phytoremediation process, by quantifying toxicological endpoints such as root length, pigment content, and catalase activity) and by quantifying individual parameters of Daphnia magna (immobilization, reproduction, and behavior analysis). Phytoremediation process resulted in a decrease of chemical oxygen demand in both effluents and in an increase in root length of exposed plants. Moreover, textile effluent decreased pigments content and increased catalase activity, while domestic effluent increased the anthocyanin content of exposed plants. D. magna acute tests allowed calculating a EC
