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

Effluents generated by anthropogenic activities are a significant source of pollution and eutrophication in natural water bodies. In Ecuador, the increase in pig production has exacerbated this issue due to the untreated discharge of pig effluents. This study focused on the characterization of native microalgae present in pig effluents and the evaluation of their capacity to remove nitrogenous compounds under various conditions, with the aim of identifying efficient strains for phycoremediation. Four microalgal strains were isolated and molecularly identified as
