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 investigated variations in mineral and potentially toxic element (PTE) content of raw and dried laver in Korea, focusing on effects of region, season, species, and drying method. Mineral content increased in dried laver owing to moisture loss; sulfur, potassium, and phosphorus dominated among macrominerals, with abundant iron and iodine, underscoring the nutritional value of laver. In raw laver, Ca, Mg, I, Mo, and Hg showed significant seasonal variability; in dried laver, S, Cr, Se, and Hg exhibited seasonal correlations. All detected PTEs remained below safety regulatory limits. Partial least-squares discriminant analysis revealed apparent seasonal clustering in dried samples across December, February, and April, limited clustering in raw samples, and indistinct regional differentiation. Dietary contribution estimates indicated that molybdenum, chromium, and manganese exceeded 15% recommended daily allowance in most samples. Target hazard quotient and total target hazard quotient values for all PTEs were < 1, indicating minimal non-carcinogenic health risk.
