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

Two-stage MBR consisting of anaerobic and aerobic reactors was operated at total hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 48 h for the treatment of livestock wastewater containing antibiotics, i.e. amoxicillin (AMX), tiamulin (TIA), and chlortetracycline (CTC), under the (1st) absence and (2nd) presence of sludge recirculation between the reactors. During the operation with sludge recirculation, the removals of organic and nitrogen were enhanced. Meanwhile, the removals of TIA and CTC were found to decrease by 9% and 20% in the aerobic reactor but increased by 5% to 7% in the anaerobic reactor due to the relocation of biomass from the aerobic to the anaerobic reactor. A high degree of AMX biodegradation under both anaerobic and aerobic conditions and partial biodegradation of TIA and CTC under aerobic conditions were confirmed in batch experiments. Moreover, the effect of sludge recirculation on biomass and pollutant removal efficiencies in the 2-stage MBR was revealed using microbial community analyses. Membrane filtration also helped to retain the adsorbed antibiotics associated with small colloidal particles in the system.
