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
Investigation on tritium (3H) washout process in a tropical region at Kakrapar Atomic Power Station (KAPS), Gujarat, India was carried out. 3H concentration in air as well as that in rainwater is estimated near KAPS Site having Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors (PHWRs) operational. Samples were collected covering the four rainy seasons from 2016 to 2019. The corresponding meteorological parameters of relative humidity, ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction, and atmospheric stability were measured. The rain spectral characteristics such as raindrop diameter, fall velocity, liquid water content (LWC) in raindrops and average rain rate are also studied. Site-specific wet deposition rate (Bq m-2 s-1) and washout coefficient for 3H (s-1) is observed to be in the range of 1.4E-05 to 4.8E-01 (Geometric Mean = 5.3E-03) and 1.1E-07 to 3.6E-02 (Geometric Mean = 4.1E-05) respectively. Significant and positive correlation was observed between average rain rate and washout coefficient (R2 = 0.73). Significant and negative correlation was observed between raindrop diameter of different rain events and 3H activity in rainwater (R2 = 0.70).
