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

The increasing trend of population growth along with the rapid groundwater-based agricultural expansion and decreasing trend of mean annual rainfall in the Northwest region of Bangladesh has been exacerbating the declination of groundwater for further expansion. Therefore, the present study attempts to demarcate the potential groundwater abstraction zones from the assessment of potential recharge and available recharge. Potential recharge was obtained with commonly used geospatial-based weighted linear combination (WLC) technique. Here, WLC analysis was based on eight factors related to physiographic (e.g. drainage density, lineament density, slope), geomorphologic (e.g. geomorphology, lithology, soil), land use and land cover (LULC) and hydrology (i.e. rainfall). Available net recharge was assessed for the period 1993-2017 by employing the water table fluctuation method. Finally, the resultant map on potential abstraction was characterized into five different classes, viz. 'very low', 'low', 'moderate', 'high' and 'very high'. The derived map reveals that 'very high' potential zone is distributed along the Teesta river floodplain, especially the northeastern part. In contrast, the Barind Tract (i.e. the southwestern and the southcentral parts) area shows 'very low' groundwater prospect. Such fused interpretations are expected to contribute to the planning of integrated management of water resources.
