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
The binding performance of dissolved organic matters (DOM) plays a critical role in the migration, diffusion and removal of various residual pollutants in the natural water environment. In the current study, four typical DOMs (including bovine serum proteins BSA (proteins), sodium alginate SAA (polysaccharides), humic acid HA and fulvic acid FA (humus)) are selected to investigate the binding roles in zwitterionic tetracycline (TET) antibiotic under various ionic strength (IS = 0.001-0.1 M) and pH (5.0-9.0). The dialysis equilibration technique was employed to determine the binding concentrations of TET, and the influence of IS and pH on binding performance was evaluated via UV-vis spectroscopy, total organic carbon (TOC), and Excitation-Emission-Matrix spectra (EEM), zeta potentials and molecule size distribution analysis. Our results suggested that carboxyl and phenolic hydroxyl were identified as the main contributors to TET binding based on the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, and the binding capability of four DOMs followed as HA > FA » BSA > SAA. The biggest binding concentrations of TET by 10 mg C/L HA, FA, BSA and SAA were 0.863 μM, 0.487 μM, 0.084 μM and 0.086 μM, respectively. The higher binding capability of HA and FA is mainly attributed to their richer functional groups, lower zeta potential (HA/FA = -15.92/-13.54 mV) and the bigger molecular size (HA/FA = 24668/27750 nm). IS significantly inhibits the binding interaction by compressing the molecular structure and the surface electric double layer, while pH had a weak effect. By combining the Donnan model and the multiple linear regression analysis, a modified Karickhoff model was established to effectively predict the binding performance of DOM under different IS (0.001-0.1 M) and pH (5.0-9.0) conditions, and the R
