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

Toxic cyanobacterial blooms in various water bodies have been given much attention nowadays as they release hazardous substances in the surrounding areas. These toxic planktonic cyanobacteria in shrimp ponds greatly affect the survival of shrimps. Ecuador is the second highest shrimp producing country in the Americas after Brazil; and the shrimp-based economy is under threat due to toxic cyanobacterial blooms in Ecuador shrimp ponds. This study investigated the abundance of different cyanobacteria in the shrimp ponds at the Chone and Jama rivers (in Manabi province) at Ecuadorian pacific coast, focusing on different environmental factors, such as temperature, pH, salinity, and light. Temperature and pH were identified as key factors in influencing the abundance of cyanobacteria, with a significant positive correlation between Raphidiopsis raciborskii and pH. The highest and lowest abundance of cyanobacteria found during the dry season in the shrimp ponds near the Chone and Jama rivers were > 3 × 10
