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

Aflatoxins are potent carcinogenic and genotoxic secondary metabolites from fungi, posing significant health risks. This study aimed to detect the presence of aflatoxins (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, AFG2, and AFT-total aflatoxins) in rice and rice-derived products, including puffed and flattened rice, from different local markets of Dhaka using HPLC with fluorescence detection, and to estimate health risks. AFT was detected in two periods, with a higher prevalence in period I (Rice: 29.55%, Flattened-rice: 60%) than in period II (Rice: 25%, Flattened-rice: 50%), whereas no aflatoxin-positive samples were found in puffed rice. AFT contaminations combining both periods in rice and flattened rice were 27.63% (0.47 µgkg
