Realistic exposure of the fungicide bixafen in soil and its toxicity and risk to natural earthworm populations after multiyear use in cereal.

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
A comprehensive multiyear monitoring program was conducted to assess the exposure, effects, and long-term risk of the fungicide bixafen to earthworms in cereal fields. The realistic exposure of bixafen in soil was assessed at 10 representative field sites in Germany after a period of up to 8 years of use with five different products containing bixafen, followed by annual measurements from 2017 to 2019. The measured exposure concentrations were compared with modeled predicted environmental concentrations in soil (PECsoil) that are derived in the context of the European risk assessment of plant protection products. It was shown that the model assumptions, in particular the kinetic parameters describing the background accumulation, provided a conservative description of the observed residue data. This demonstrates that the exposure modeling tools are adequate for use in soil risk assessment. Laboratory and field ecotoxicological studies were performed to provide a comprehensive risk assessment on the long-term use of bixafen-based fungicides in cereals. While a laboratory reproduction study with the earthworm Eisenia fetida indicated a potential risk at the Tier 1 risk assessment for the end-use product Skyway XPro
