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

A gravel contact oxidation system is an ecological engineering packed-bed reactor that uses gravel as a biofilm carrier to remove waterborne contaminants. While widely studied for pollution control, little is known about its microbial communities. In this study, we evaluated the system's effectiveness in reducing coliform bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant and hemolytic strains, as indicators of pollution and public health risk in Dongda Creek, Taiwan. Results showed a significant reduction in coliform levels, from 10
