Biomonitoring of Silver in Children and Adolescents from Alcalá de Henares (Spain): Assessing Potential Health Risks from Topsoil Contamination.

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
This study assessed exposure to silver (Ag) in children and adolescents living in Alcalá de Henares, an urban-industrial city in the Madrid Region (Spain), in light of the growing use of Ag in consumer and medical products. Scalp hair was collected from 120 children (6-9 years; 70 females) and 97 adolescents (13-16 years; 68 females) permanently residing in the city, and Ag concentrations were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry under strict quality control. In parallel, 97 topsoil samples from urban parks were analysed to evaluate potential environmental sources, and risks of non-carcinogenic exposure via ingestion and dermal routes were characterised. Median Ag levels (µg/g) were 0.1205 in girls and 0.0892 in boys among children, and 0.1057 and 0.0387 among adolescent females and males, respectively. No significant differences were observed between age groups (
