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

We evaluated total mercury (THg) concentrations in fish from lakes in two major South American river basins: the Madeira River basin in the Western Amazon, impacted by gold mining, deforestation, and wildfires; and the Araguaia River basin in the Brazilian Savanna (Cerrado), where deforestation and wildfires are the main anthropogenic pressures. Total Hg concentrations ranged from 37 to 2473 µg kg
