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

Since rivers are adversely affected by harmful algal blooms (HABs), it is necessary to develop countermeasures through analyzing the relationship between environmental variables and HABs. This study focused on analyzing the connections between HABs and environmental variables in the middle reaches of the Nakdong River in South Korea. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to identify those relationships. The study developed three different PLS-SEM models to investigate various aspects, including lagged effects of environmental factors, influences from upstream and tributaries, and interactions between genera of HABs. The results of the study revealed that the magnitude of HABs had the strongest relationships with nutrient concentrations, particularly 1 week prior to HABs measurement. Additionally, the magnitude of HABs showed stronger relationships with upstream nutrient concentrations compared with tributaries' nutrient concentrations. Furthermore, the dominant genus of HABs in the study area,
