Ecologically Safe Threshold Evaluation of Microplastics Contamination in Freshwater Ecosystems of South Asian Countries Using T
Article in Water environment research : a research publication of the Water Environment Federation, 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
Microplastics (MPs) pollution has become a global problem recently, and a wide range of aquatic biota are exposed to MPs in their natural habitat, leading to severe environmental risks. There are reports on ecologically safe threshold limit of MPs based on toxicity data; however, no report is available specifically for South Asian freshwater aquatic species until now. The present study attempted to enumerate the ecologically safe limits of MPs in inland aquatic ecosystems of South Asian countries (India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan, and Afghanistan) based on species sensitivity. All benthic invertebrates demonstrated comparatively lower relative tolerance (T
