Spatial and temporal variation of dissolved heavy metals in the Lijiang River, China: implication of rainstorm on drinking water quality.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Lijiang River is an essential drinking water source and natural scenery in the Guilin City. For the first time, implications of rainstorm were taken into consideration by investigating spatial and temporal variation of dissolved heavy metals (HMs) in the Lijiang River water. A total of 68 water samples were collected during low flow (normal) season and high flow (rainstorm) season from 34 sampling sites. Dissolved HMs including Cr, Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Sb, and Pb were found to meet the respective drinking water standards, while comparatively higher concentration was observed after the rainstorm season, except for Cr. Multivariate statistical analysis showed that Co, Cu, Cr, Zn, Sb, and Pb in normal season were mainly controlled by anthropogenic sources. Furthermore, higher concentrations of Mn, Cu, Cd, Pb, Co, and Zn during the high flow season were attributed to rainstorm. The water quality index (WQI) showed good grades and comparatively lower in rainstorm season. The results of health risk assessment revealed that HMs in Lijiang River posed limited health risk; however, As posed potential health risk specially in rainstorm season. It is suggested to adopt preventive measures for mining activities and industrial waste-water discharge at the river's upstream and downstream.
