Distribution and potential risk assessment of antibiotic pollution in the main drinking water sources of Nanjing, China.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The distribution character of 41 antibiotics belonging to 6 groups, sulfonamides (SAs), quinolones (QUs), tetracyclines (TCs), macrolides (MLs), penicillins (PLs), and chloramphenicol (CHL), was investigated in drinking water sources of Nanjing during 2017-2019. MLs (42.98%) were the most abundant category, followed by SAs (25.94%) and QUs (22.52%). The dominant antibiotic was ofloxacin (OFX) in Dec. 2017 (average concentration, 3.14 ng/L; range, ND-35.20 ng/L) and Nov. 2018 (2.16 ng/L, ND-12.26 ng/L), and sulfadiazine (SDZ) in Mar. 2019 (16.37 ng/L, ND-25.90 ng/L). For Dec. 2017, the total concentrations in Zhongshan Waterworks (S15) and Jinniushan Reservoir (S16) were significantly higher than the other sampling sites, which may be attributed to point source pollution. The ecological and human risk of the main antibiotics was assessed by risk quotients (RQs) and target hazard quotient (THQ), respectively. Most of the RQ values were below 0.1, except enrofloxacin (ERX, 0.11) and enoxacin (ENX, 0.62) in Dec. 2017, lomefloxacin (LOM, 0.14) in Nov. 2018, and LOM (0.28) and ERX (0.10) in Mar. 2019. This indicated that the risk of the target antibiotics to aquatic organisms in the 3 years was moderate or low level. Meanwhile, results of the THQ values showed that antibiotic exposure caused no risk to human health. This research provides scientific information for antibiotic pollution control and enriches environmental monitoring data in the drinking water sources.
