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
Seasonal variability in water supply in tropical humid environments makes household water storage essential for reliable domestic access. This study examined water storage practices and determinants of storage behaviour in Iwo Township, Osun State, Nigeria. Using stratified random sampling, 756 households across 4 sections-Gidigbo, Molete, Oke-Oba I, and Oke-Oba II-were surveyed between February and November 2023, prioritising female household heads due to their central role in water management. Household sizes ranged from fewer than 5 members (32.3%) to more than 15 (12.3%), with most comprising 6 to 10 persons (34.0%). Educational levels were predominantly post-primary (57.7%) and tertiary (25.0%), while religious affiliation was split between Islam (51.9%) and Christianity (45.4%). Storage relied mainly on steel and plastic drums (44.2%), followed by buckets (29.5%) and overhead tanks (20.4%), with deep wells and boreholes serving 89.3% of households. Factor analysis identified 8 determinants of storage preferences, explaining 82.7% of the variance: age composition (17.8%), number of toilets (12.2%), water supply reliability (11.6%), religious activities (10.9%), beliefs about storage (9.0%), household assets (8.9%), storage method (6.8%), and alternative sources (5.7%). The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin measure (0.827) and Bartlett's test (
