Applicability of Electron Beam Technology for the Degradation of Microcystin-LR in Surface Waters.
Article in ACS omega, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Studies were performed to investigate the effects of surface water quality parameters on the degradation of microcystin-LR (MC-LR) using high-energy electron beam (eBeam) technology. Surface water samples were collected across different geographic locations in the United States. Water quality parameters including pH, alkalinity, TDS, and dissolved oxygen were measured in all samples. Degradation of MC-LR in all samples, regardless of parameter concentrations, was above 99%. The effect of natural organic matter (NOM) on MC-LR degradation was also investigated in the presence of fulvic acid. Similarly, the degradation efficiency of MC-LR exceeded 99% for all concentrations of fulvic acid at 5 kGy. This study suggests that surface water quality has a negligible effect on the degradation of MC-LR via eBeam treatment. The results indicate that eBeam technology is a promising technique for the treatment of water contaminated with microcystins.
