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

Corn is one of the most important grains in the human food basket and is also widely cultivated in Iran. This research was conducted to evaluate the status of arsenic, lead, and chromium contamination in corn (Zea mays) samples grown in Dezful and Behbahan cities in Khuzestan province. In this research, five farms were randomly selected in each city, and from each field, five soil samples and five corn samples were prepared in the summer and autumn. A total of 50 soil samples and 50 corn samples were collected from the two study areas of Dezful and Behbahan cities in 2022. The average concentration of Pb, As, and Cr in corn samples was 1.84, 1.57, and 4.92 mg kg
