Making waves: Harnessing anammox bacteria coupled with dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium for sustainable wastewater management.

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.
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
Anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) which converts nitrite and ammonium to dinitrogen gas is an energy-efficient nitrogen removal process. One of the bottlenecks for anammox application in wastewater treatment is the stable supply of nitrite for anammox bacteria. Dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) is a process that converts nitrate to nitrite and then to ammonium. Significantly, it has been reported that some anammox bacteria can perform DNRA by reducing nitrate to nitrite and ammonium nitrogen with little low-molecular-weight organic acids such as volatile fatty acids. Here, we propose an innovative nitrogen removal process, i.e., nitrification and anammox coupled with partial DNRA (i.e., NPDA), and make a theoretical comparison with previously accepted partial nitrification and anammox (PNA) and partial denitrification and anammox (PdNA) for nitrogen removal. Under similar conditions of oxygen consumption, removal efficiency, external carbon source addition, and greenhouse gas emission, the novel NPDA process can better facilitate resource-effective and environment-friendly wastewater treatment. Thermodynamic analysis indicates that partial DNRA-anammox appears to be preferred, oxidizing per mole of NH
