Improved ecological risk assessment of phenol in sediments via species sensitivity distribution and equilibrium partitioning method using water toxicity data.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Phenol is a water-soluble contaminant frequently detected in sediments, yet sediment-specific toxicity data are scarce. To address this data gap, we evaluated the use of water-based toxicity data for sediment ecological risk assessment (ERA) by combining the equilibrium partitioning method (EPM) with species sensitivity distributions (SSDs). Acute and chronic toxicity data from laboratory and artificial-stream tests using native aquatic species were compiled and converted to sediment-equivalent values for SSD construction. We quantified how species origin (native vs. foreign), habitat type (benthic vs. non-benthic), taxonomic composition, and sample size affect SSD-derived hazardous concentration for 5% of species (HC
