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

Metal levels and potential health risk assessment in muscle, liver, and gills of three fish species (Merluccius merluccius, Mullus barbatus, and Pagellus erythrinus) from the Edremit Bay were investigated in spring and autumn 2015. Metal concentrations (Hg, Cd, Pb, Cr, Cu, Zn, Mn, and Fe), metal pollution index, and bioaccumulation factors in P. erythrinus were observed to be generally higher than those in M. barbatus and M. merluccius. Tissue was the main factor that might be responsible from the variations of metals in fish species according to ANOVA and PCA. Hg concentrations in M. barbatus and P. erythrinus were greater than threshold limits defined by international authorities; however, no carcinogenic risks were found for Cd and Pb levels. According to the results, the bay has been negatively influenced by human activities, and further research on monitoring of the biota and sediments is recommended for Edremit Bay and similar coastal areas under human pressure.
