Evaluation of the pollution pressures posed by groups of chemicals on British riverine invertebrate populations.
Review in Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Globally, rivers receive a diverse range of chemicals, including metals, pesticides, persistent organic pollutants, petrochemicals, human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal care products. However, the extent to which these different chemical groups affect riverine invertebrate communities is not well defined. Here we set out to evaluate the available evidence for associations between British riverine invertebrate communities and different chemical groups (and individual members of these chemical groups). Our assessment comprised three elements, (i) an evaluation of whether environmental concentrations of these chemicals exceed the lowest effect concentrations (ECs) based on laboratory tests, (ii) an assessment of associations between chemical groups and changes in British riverine invertebrate communities using the existing published literature, and (iii) calculated potential risk of toxicity of the chemical groups to invertebrates based on measured exposures (Environmental Agency monitoring data) and laboratory-based measurements of the lethal concentration required to kill half of the tested population (LC
