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

Water scarcity has led to the growing use of untreated wastewater for irrigation in Iran, posing serious risks to human health and the environment. Treated Wastewater (TWW) offers a safer and more sustainable alternative, with economic, environmental, and social benefits. However, its adoption by farmers remains limited. This study aligns with the One Health approach by examining how irrigation practices affect interconnected domains-human health, environmental safety, and agricultural productivity-and by identifying behavioral factors that influence farmers' decisions regarding safe water use. This study applies the Health Belief Model (HBM) to explore the determinants of farmers' intentions to use TWW for irrigation. Using a survey-based approach and structural equation modeling (SEM), the study analyzes responses from farmers in Tehran Province, Iran. The findings reveal that the HBM accounts for 72.1 % of the variance in farmers' intentions to adopt TWW, with perceived benefits emerging as the strongest predictor. These results suggest that targeted policy interventions emphasizing the economic, environmental, and social benefits of TWW, along with addressing the negative effects of untreated wastewater (UTWW) on agricultural productivity, could encourage wider adoption among farmers.
