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

Swimming pools represent a unique aquatic environment, with continuous bacterial inoculation from swimmers and high disinfectant levels to control microbial growth. Whether, how, and which groups of bacteria can survive this strong disinfectant stress and pose a potential threat to swimmer health remain poorly understood. This study leveraged the unique opportunity of a newly opened swimming pool to address these questions. Analysis of bacterial community structures in water revealed that disinfectants substantially and temporarily simplified bacterial communities, with only a few dominant specialized groups surviving under disinfectant stress. Among the culturable pathogens, such as
