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

Bromoform is the most prominent, relatively long-lived chlorination by-product in condenser effluents from seawater-based power plant cooling systems. There are few reports on the potential toxicity of this trihalomethane to marine phytoplankton. We investigated this using a marine diatom, Chaetoceros lorenzianus as the model organism. The study was conducted by exposing the diatom to bromoform concentrations 0, 50, 100, 150, 250, 500 and 1000 µg/L for exposure time of 3 and 24 h. The mode of action of bromoform was examined using endpoints which include chlorophyll a fluorescence, cell viability by SYTOX® green stain and genotoxicity by comet assay. The relative fluorescence unit and percent viability changed significantly at all concentrations in duration of study. The 24-h IC
