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

Heavy metal (HM) pollution threatens human and ecosystem health. Current methods for remediating water contaminated with HMs are expensive and have limited effect. Therefore, bioremediation is being investigated as an environmentally and economically viable alternative. Freshwater protists Euglena gracilis and Euglena mutabilis were investigated for their tolerance to cadmium (Cd). A greater increase in cell numbers under Cd stress was noted for E. mutabilis but only E. gracilis showed an increase in Cd tolerance following pre-treatment with elevated concentrations of S or N. To gain insight regarding the nature of the increased tolerance RNA-sequencing was carried out on E. gracilis. This revealed transcript level changes among pretreated cells, and additional differences among cells exposed to CdCl
