Heavy metal concentrations and pollution indicators in the Ennore ecosystem, east coast of Tamilnadu, India using atomic absorption spectrometry study with statistical approach.

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
The study of the heavy metals in the Ennore ecosystem plays a vital role in determining the extent of pollution in the area. Heavy metals such as Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Ti, Fe, V, Cr, Mn, Co Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Ba, La, and Pb were determined in twenty-six samples. The heavy metal concentration in the sediments was found to decrease in the sequence of Si > Al > Fe > Ca > Ti > K > Mg > Mn > Ba > V > Cr > Zn > La > Ni > Pb > Co > As > Cd > Cu in the study area, its varies as follows: 540-49,434, 3597-56,502, 22.37-691, 11.5-198.29, 69.10-1227.61, 1.40-19.95 and 11.48-38.63 for Ti, Fe, V, Cr, Mn, Co and Ni respectively. The average heavy metal concentrations were below the world's crustal average. The level of sediment pollution attributed to heavy metals was evaluated using several pollution indicators such as the enrichment factor (EF), contamination factor (CF), geoaccumulation index (I
