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

Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) generate residues, such as filter backwash water (FBW), that can harm the aquatic environments if discharged into water sources. In this sense, FBW recycling has gained attention. Nevertheless, it requires treatment to maintain operational efficiency and water quality in the DWTP. This work analyzed the main variables interfering with Fenton treatment of FBW from a full-scale DWTP aiming at removing turbidity and microorganisms. Bench-scale tests successfully inactivated 100% of Escherichia coli. Desired removal of other parameters (99.1% of turbidity, 99.9% of color, and achieving a 2.5 log
