1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Heavy metal pollution has become one of the most threats that can endanger human health due to accumulation and consumption of fruits. Our study was aimed to evaluate physicochemical quality parameters, level of heavy metals, and assessment of health risks of lead (Pb), Manganes (Mn), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and cadmium (Cd) in mango fruits from Arba Minch, Wolaita Sodo, and Damote Gale study areas. Quality parameters such as, total soluble solid, moisture, ash, titratable acidity, pH, total sugar, reducing sugar and non-reducing sugar, fat and fiber content of mango fruit were ranged between 15.68° and 18.92°B, 81.080-84.320 %,g, 4.040-4.080, 11.56-12.95%, 10.07-12.54%, 1.60-3.83%,0.397-0.673%, and 1.338-2.375% 0.283-1.030 %, 0.311-0.366 mg/100 g, 4.040-4.080, 11.56-12.95 %, 10.07-12.54 %, 1.60-3.83 %,0.397-0.673 %, and 1.338-2.375 % respectively. The average levels of metals in mango fruits were in the range Fe (1.166-1.486 mg/kg), Cu (0.019-0.198 mg/kg), Mn (0.121-0.239 mg/kg), Zn (0.134-0.321 mg/k), Pb (0.035-0.097 mg /kg) and Cd (0.193 mg/kg). Chromium is not detected in our study, because its level is below the detection limit. On average within metals, the highest level was obtained in Fe in the range 1.166-1.486 mg/kg, whereas the minimum level was determined in Pb from 0.035 to 0.097 mg/kg. The EDI values of accumulated elements in mango fruits follows the increasing order as; Fe
