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
Groundwater is an important source of drinking water. However, pollution of groundwater resource could initiate serious health damage to the consumers. The present study aimed at assessing the quality and health risk of groundwater samples collected from the peri-urban areas of Abeokuta. Twelve (12) fresh ditch cuttings from wells sites and forty (40) well water samples were collected between August and September, 2018. Samples were analysed for important physical and chemical parameters using the standard procedure. Groundwater data were subjected to statistical manipulation of descriptive and inferential statistics. The health risk assessment was conducted for non-carcinogenic effect {hazard quotient (HQ), hazard index (HI)} and cancer risk (CR). Results showed the pH of groundwater ranged from 7.65 to 8.48. The electrical conductivity varied from 266.5 to 461.5 µS/cm, while the total dissolved solids ranged from 90.0 to 348.2 mg/L. The concentrations of Pb (1.58-14.5 µg/L), Mn (11.10-836 µg/L), Al (64-2000 µg/L) and Fe (30-5070 µg/L) in groundwater were higher than the permissible limits of the World Health Organization in drinking water. The levels of metals/metalloids in the well cuttings were: Pb (8.9-27.6 µg/kg), As (0.8-8.6 µg/kg), Cr (14.0-98.0 µg/kg) and Mn (138.0-1080 µg/kg). The HQs of Cr (infants and children) and Ba (infants, children and adults) were greater than 1.0 indicating adverse health effects. The CRs of Cr, Co and Ni in water consumed by infants, children and adults were greater than the acceptable limit of 1.0 × 10
