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

Climate change affects the concentration and characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in surface water. The changes in composition of DOM have many implications to drinking water quality, especially in the case of formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs). The aim of this study was to investigate the formation of nitrogenous DBPs (N-DBPs) during chlorination and chloramination, caused by the alternation of surface water's DOM driven by climate change. For this reason, two different cases were examined: (a) rise of algal organic matter (AOM) due to water blooming and (b) water enrichment by humic substances. The target compounds were haloacetonitriles (HANs), haloacetamides (HAcAms), and halonitromethane (TCNM). The results showed that Anabaena appears to be a major precursor for HAcAms and TCNM, while humic acids are precursors for HANs. The results of the mixtures presented the same pattern. During the water blooming case, HAcAms and TCNM formation are in favor, while during water enrichment by humic substances case, HANs is the N-DBP group with higher formation yield. Cloraminated samples presented higher values of cytotoxicity and genotoxicity compared to the chlorinated.
