Organochlorine pesticide residues in tea and their potential risks to consumers in Ethiopia.
Article in Heliyon, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Tea is the most frequently consumed drink in the sphere; next to the water. However, tea can be contaminated by different pesticides particularly those outdated pesticides which have been familiar as one of the main difficulties in Ethiopia and contaminate the food commodities. From a study done in south west of Ethiopia, Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and endosulfan were detected in commonly consumed food items. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to analyze the residue of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in tea collected from the market and assessing their risks to consumers. 19 different tea samples were randomly collected from supermarkets in Jimma town and Addis Ababa city. In the analytical procedure, QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Rugged, and Safe) method was applied for the extraction of tea samples. The finding of the study revealed that, five OCPs (aldrin, γ-chlordane, DDT, endrin, and dibutylchlorepoxide) were detected at a concentration of 0.1465, 0.167, 0.2044, 0.3067 and 0.4089 mg kg
