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

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are widespread contaminants that bioaccumulate in the food web, posing risks to wildlife, especially top predators. This study investigates the occurrence of POPs in liver tissues of 23 Magellanic Penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) stranded along the Brazilian coast from June to September 2017. We analyzed concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides (DDTs, Drins, mirex, endosulfans), and hexachlorobenzene (HCB). POPs were detected in all samples. PCBs and DDTs showed the highest concentrations, with PCBs ranging from < LOD to 199.4 ng g
