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

Iran, situated in the Middle East, is recognized as a prominent energy hub, with its economy heavily reliant on the exportation of energy. Iran currently faces significant water stress, underscoring the importance of examining its Water-Energy (WE) nexus. Hence, it is crucial to examine the Water-Energy (WE) nexus in this nation. This study evaluates Iran's WE nexus from upstream to downstream in its energy subsystem (2007-2017) through an integrated framework combining water footprint analysis, water consumption methodologies, and nexus system modeling. This study assessed the WE nexus from upstream to downstream in Iran from 2007 to 2017. Key findings reveal that steam turbine power plants, particularly Ramin and Neka, exhibit the highest water consumption intensities, approximately 2.04 and 2.65 m
