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
Understanding the elemental and structural composition of mercury-dissolved organic matter (Hg-DOM) complexes is crucial for comprehending Hg speciation, bioavailability, and transformations in aquatic ecosystems. However, low concentrations of these organo-metal complexes in natural waters and extraction at acidic pH constrain their characterization. Here, we used solid phase extraction (SPE) methodology to extract Hg-DOM complexes at ambient pH and validated their preconcentration by preserving the composition for identification using ultra-high-resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS). While the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) extraction efficiency was higher with cartridges containing styrene divinylbenzene copolymer (PPL) than silica structure bonded with hydrocarbon chains (C18), Hg in both extracts showed no significant difference. FT-ICR-MS analysis revealed that Hg-DOM complexes extracted by C18 cartridges were aliphatic with smaller carbon chains (16-18), whereas complexes extracted with PPL exhibited both aliphatic and aromatic characteristics with a wide distribution of carbon chains ranging from 17 to 25. The C18 cartridge appeared to be selective in extracting and preserving the nonpolar complexes, as evidenced by the identification of two molecular formulae, C
