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

When the amount of nutrients in water bodies increases, cyanobacteria tend to proliferate rapidly in freshwater lakes and reservoirs, which can trigger cyanobacterial blooms. This increases the risk of cyanotoxin generation in water sources intended for human consumption, crop irrigation, and livestock. This study focused on identifying the presence of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins in the Valdesia reservoir, which supplies drinking water to approximately 4 million people in Santo Domingo, Azua, San Cristóbal, San José de Ocoa, and Peravia in the Dominican Republic. Morphological observation suggested the presence of the genus
