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

This study quantified mercury (Hg) levels in the body hair of domestic and wild animals in four Brazilian states, Paraná, Mato Grosso do Sul, Goiás, and Minas Gerais, by analyzing 169 samples from sows, piglets, free-range pigs, and wild animals. The highest mean Hg concentration (274.93 ± 48.14 µg/kg) was found in wild animals in the Pantanal (MSSilvestre, Mato Grosso do Sul), followed by Minas Gerais (245.09 ± 40.27 µg/kg) and Paraná (193.0 ± 42.45 µg/kg). Levels at the GO, MGM, MSLiv, and PRV sites were significantly lower (
