Evaluation of chromium in vegetables and groundwater aptness for crops from an industrial (leather tanning) sector of South India.
Article in Environmental geochemistry and health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 main objective of the present study is evaluation of groundwater aptness for crops and chromium concentration in vegetables from an industrial (leather tanning) sector of South India using geospatial techniques. Seventy groundwater samples were collected from the open and tube wells during November 2017, February 2018, May 2018 and September 2018 to represent northeast (NE) monsoon (October-December), post-monsoon (winter) (January-February), pre-monsoon (summer) (March-May) and southwest (SW) monsoon (June-September) seasons, respectively. In addition, vegetables were also collected during the above-mentioned seasons from the market to assess the level of chromium content in them. All the groundwater samples were tested in the chemical laboratory using the American Public Health Association norms for various physicochemical parameters, viz. TDS, pH, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, bicarbonate, chloride, sulfate, nitrate, fluoride and chromium. Northeast and southwest monsoon season samples mostly represented 'high to very high saline' and 'low alkaline' categories of irrigation water. However, post- and pre-monsoon samples represented 'high to very high saline' and 'low to medium alkaline' categories. 'High saline and low alkaline' water could be used for irrigation in all types of soil with less problem of exchangeable sodium. However, 'very high saline' water should not be applied for the crops having poor salt tolerance and soils having poor internal drainage. The concentration of chromium in groundwater and vegetables was within the permissible limits for human intake prescribed by the World Health Organization standards.
