Heavy Metal Accumulation in Dominant Green Algae Living in a Habitat Under the Influence of Cu Mine Discharge Water.

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
Algae absorb nutrients such as nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), as well as dissolved metal ions from polluted waters, and accumulate them in their tissues, thus contributing to the decontamination of water. This feature enables them to be used both as bioindicators of water pollution and in bioremediation applications aimed at the remediation of these waters. This study aims to define the dominant macroscopic green algae species developing in habitats affected by acidic leaks and currents from the copper mine operation site located in the Maden district of Elazığ province (Türkiye) and determine the extent to which these algal biomasses bioaccumulate selected metals (As, Cu, Cr, Hg, Cd, Ni, Pb, Zn) and contribute to water decontamination. For these purposes, metal (Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Cr, Pb and Cd) analyses were conducted on the algal biomasses collected from the abovementioned habitats and on water samples using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). The dominant algal biomasses collected from the seepage water and Maden River habitats were identified as
