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

Sulfolane is a worldwide water-soluble pollutant, which typically migrates rapidly in impacted aquifers, with risks to water bodies and drinking water wells. Sulfolane migration may be delayed in sites co-polluted by hydrocarbons, which move more slowly and in which sulfolane partitions. However, when bacteria such as Graphical Abstract:
