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

Bioremediation is a promising method for removing heavy metals in contaminated effluents. Using several microorganisms, the process can provide efficient treatment, resulting in reduced waste generation, all while promoting sustainability. The current work evaluated the potential of the novel assembly by Rhodospirillum rubrum and Rhodobacter capsulatus to remove hexavalent chromium, total chromium, cadmium, and lead. In addition, photosynthetic pigment (bacteriochlorophyll-a and carotenoids) production and biomass increment were verified. A composite central design (CCD) was proposed to obtain models describing the behavior of the initial concentration of chromium, cadmium, and lead (independent variables). In the experiments described at the central point by the CCD, the co-culture (R. capsulatus: R. rubrum) was inoculated in 500 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing an effluent consisting of RCV medium with heavy metals (20 mg/L Cr
