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

A mechanical harvesting technology based on coupling flocculation with a rotary drum filter (RDF, 35-μm) was applied to remove cyanobacterial blooms and produce clean water in Lake Caohai, a sub-lake of Lake Dianchi (Kunming, China). After treatment with a shipboard RDF and cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM, 0.5-2 mg/L) flocculation, > 95% of cyanobacterial biomass was removed. The chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration and turbidity in the effluent were < 8 μg/L and < 3 NTU, respectively. Nutrient concentrations were also markedly reduced, with a permanganate index (PI) of < 2 mg/L and total phosphorus concentration of < 20 μg/L. The total nitrogen concentration was reduced from 2.75 to 1.65 mg/L, and most of the residual nitrogen was nitrate. Although powerful for the removal of suspended particles and an enhanced water transparency, the combined technology showed no significant reduction in inorganic nutrients and only a slight reduction in dissolved organic matter (DOM). The concentrations of protein and polysaccharide were significantly reduced, while that of humic matter did not change during the process. After flushing with the effluent of the RDF, a 20,000-m
