Temporal and spatial variations of surface water quality in the Nile River of Damietta Region, Egypt.
Article in Environmental monitoring and assessment, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Temporal/spatial variations of surface water quality were examined for the Nile River in the Damietta region where it serves as the major source of water for the inhabitants of Damietta Governorate. A total of 32 water quality parameters were monitored at six sampling sites for 12 months from February 2016 to January 2017. Higher values of chemical oxygen demand (COD), biological oxygen demand (BOD), heavy metals, and nutrients were observed upstream. About ~ 70% of the total variance in observations was explained by five main influences using factor analysis. The first factor (24.6% of the variance) was indicative of the mixed sources of natural and anthropogenic inputs. The second (nutritional) and the third (organic) factors were mainly controlled by the discharges from agricultural and domestic sources, respectively. Human activities and natural processes controlled the fourth and fifth factors. Only 11 parameters (K, temperature, COD, HPC, total hardness, DO, NO
