Ecological and human health risk evaluation of potential toxic metals in paddy soil, rice plants, and rice grains (Oryza sativa) of Omor Rice Field, Nigeria.

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
Potential toxic metals from natural and anthropogenic sources accumulate in soil and plants, and represent important environmental contamination challenges. The ecological and human health risks of the potential toxic metals in rice grain, paddy soil, and rice plants of Omor rice field were assessed. The total metal concentration from the four sampling sections (mg/kg) were soil-Zn (29.51 ± 2.23), Mn (55.27 ± 8.10), Cd (5.49 ± 2.24), Cu (2.94 ± 1.47), Pb (14.35 ± 6.54), and Cr (27.06 ± 8.31); rice grain-Zn (21.70 ± 5.44), Mn (3.30 ± 0.21), Cd (00.14 ± 0.11), Cu (2.80 ± 0.34), Pb (11.98 ± 0.58), and Cr (15.86 ± 2.79); and for rice plant-Zn (5.24 ± 1.93), Mn (4.68 ± 1.91), Cd (0.21 ± 0.11), Cu (4.88 ± 0.61), Pb (15.24 ± 6.16), and Cr (46.5 ± 6.05). The estimated daily intakes for adult showed that Cd and Pb exceeded the safe limit by 1% and 93%, respectively. The metal hazard quotients (Zn-0.0007, Mn-0.00019, Cd-0.16, Cu-0.19, and Cr-0.0000077) were less than 1 indicating no probable health risk originating from their exposure. The total hazard index (0.35) also suggests no probable health risk connected with the rice consumption. The metals' ecological risk indices of the soil showed low-risk (< 40), except Cd in some sections of the rice field which indicated moderate potential ecological risk (40-80).
