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
To address the worsening environmental pollution caused by the large-scale release of tetracycline (TC) into the environment, this study developed an advanced oxidation system utilizing ultraviolet (UV)-activated peroxyacetic acid (PAA) for the removal of TC. The results showed that the UV/PAA system exhibited markedly enhanced performance compared to individual treatments. Under identical conditions (1.0 mM PAA, 400 W UV irradiation), the TC removal rates by PAA alone and UV irradiation alone were 25.80% and 55.05%, respectively. In contrast, the combined UV/PAA system achieved a significantly higher degradation efficiency of 79.77%, which was 3.09 times and 1.45 times higher than that of PAA and UV processes alone. This superior performance is attributed to the generation of highly reactive species within the system. The degradation process followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. An increase in TC concentration led to a decrease in degradation efficiency, whereas elevating the PAA dosage or light intensity increased the concentration of radicals in the system, thereby enhancing removal performance. Overall degradation efficiency was slightly higher under alkaline conditions compared to acidic conditions, while neutral conditions resulted in slower degradation rates. Among coexisting anions, HCO
