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

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in the surface sediments of the Pasur river estuary was investigated to assess its distribution, potential sources, and current dangers to ecological and public health. The Pasur River is a tidal, meandering, perennial river in south-western Bangladesh with a considerable number of fisheries and industrial activities. Sediment samples were collected from seven sampling points from January to December 2022 to assess the contamination level of six potentially toxic elements (Pb, Cr, Cd, As, Cu and Zn). Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer was utilized to detect the concentration of PTEs by following some sequential analytical procedure. Concentration of PTEs followed the reducing trend of Zn > Cr > Pb > As > Cu > Cd with the mean value of 61.04 > 49.15 > 26.58 > 10.28 > 6.28 > 1.59 mg/kg, respectively. The principle component and cluster analyses justified the anthropogenic source of the studied PTEs. The mean values of contamination factor (CF), geo-accumulation index (
