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

This study aimed to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution of N-nitrosamines (NAs) in water samples collected from the Soyang Drinking Water Treatment Plant (DWTP) and five tap water sampling locations in Chuncheon, Gangwon State, Republic of Korea, located 0.9 to 6.2 km away from the DWTP. The treated water from the DWTP was monitored for 24 h. NAs were quantitatively measured using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) after solid-phase extraction (SPE) with Carboxen 572, denitrosation, and dansylation. Three NAs in the water samples showed high detection rates exceeding 66.7%, with N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) levels reaching up to 45.0 ng/L in the DWTP and 62.6 ng/L in tap water. The concentration of NDMA increased from 2.50 to 30.7 ng/L in 24 h and showed a significant correlation with dimethylamine, temperature, dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen, and total chlorine. This study highlighted the importance of using advanced monitoring systems for tap water and the necessity of implementing strategies to control NAs.
