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

Rigorous evaluations of community water supply interventions are necessary to understand their impact on water quality and access. Our study in Beira, Mozambique assessed the impact of water infrastructure improvements in neighborhoods with or without piped water network upgrades. Data were collected from 642 households on microbial contamination in stored and source water, water access, and satisfaction with water service. The intervention reduced source water
