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

Heavy metals in lake sediments represent typical persistent contaminants characterized by recalcitrance, bioaccumulation potential, and delayed toxic effects, thereby exerting sustained adverse impacts on lacustrine ecosystem stability and human health. Liuye Lake is a representative small-to-medium urban lake impacted by ambient domestic sewage discharge and agricultural non-point source pollution, with documented nitrogen and phosphorus enrichment. However, the contamination profile of heavy metals in its surface sediments has not been systematically investigated to date. In this work, surface sediment samples were collected from Liuye Lake, and nine heavy metal elements (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn) were determined. An integrated approach incorporating Monte Carlo simulation, the geo-accumulation index (
