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

To assess fly diversity, abundance, and accumulation of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in tissue, necrophagous fly communities were collected from open waste bins and landfills in western Thailand. Highest species richness was recorded in Mae Pa and Panlan, each with 11 species; however, Mae Pa exhibited a higher Margalef's richness index and significantly greater abundance (4,874 individuals) compared to Panlan (314 individuals). Khaothong showed lowest richness with 5 species and a moderate abundance of 944 individuals. Several fly species accumulated considerable PTEs from municipal wastes. Cadmium and zinc were among the most enriched of the PTEs, showing high CF values in the study locations ࣧ 15.25 at Ban Makluea, 15.82 at Pha De and 30.43 at Khaothong, respectively. Principal component analysis indicated that Atherigona spp. and Musca sorbens were highly correlated with cadmium, aluminum, iron, lead and chromium, particularly in Pha De and Mae Pa, respectively. Musca sorbens accumulated the highest concentrations of Cd (278 mg kg
