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

Elevated levels of silver in aquatic environments arising from widespread use of silver nitrate and silver nanoparticles in different sectors of industry and medicine pose significant biophysical challenges to aquatic microorganisms. Despite extensive toxicity studies of silver on bacteria and microbial communities, its influence on other aquatic microorganisms, such as microalgae, remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the biophysical response of C. reinhardtii microalgae to silver ion exposure in terms of their population growth dynamics, chlorophyll content, and swimming motility. We found that silver ions at different concentrations (from 0.29 to 1.18
