Enhancing anammox reactor performance: the role of biotic and abiotic particle addition.

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.
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
The slow growth rate of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria and susceptibility of anammox sludge to washout pose significant challenges for the successful start-up and stable operation of the anammox process. Granulation may resolve this issue. This study investigated the effects of biotic and abiotic particle addition on the start-up and operation of anammox reactor by inoculating seed sludge with suspended, granular, magnesium ammonium phosphate (MAP) coupled anammox sludge, and pure MAP precipitates, aiming to promote granulation and preserve anammox functionality. The results showed that the start-up period of the reactor was consistent approximately 55 days, irrespective of inoculation type. Notably, the addition of anammox sludge and MAP precipitates did not notably expedite the start-up process. However, incorporating of biotic and abiotic particle additions significantly enhanced the nitrogen removal rate per unit volume of sludge (p < 0.05), achieving 2.20-2.62 kg N m⁻
