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

The present study explored the influence of ultrasound on acidogenic fermentation of wastewater for the production of biohydrogen and volatile fatty acids/carboxylic acids. Eight sono-bioreactors underwent ultrasound (20 kHz: 2W and 4W), with an ultrasound duration ranging from 15 min to 30 days, and the formation of acidogenic metabolites. Long-term continuous ultrasonication enhanced biohydrogen and volatile fatty acid production. Specifically, ultrasonication at 4W for 30 days increased biohydrogen production by 3.05-fold compared to the control, corresponding to hydrogen conversion efficiency of 58.4%; enhanced volatile fatty acid production by 2.49-fold; and increased acidification to 76.43%. The observed effect of ultrasound was linked to enrichment with hydrogen-producing acidogens such as
