Biosorption of cadmium by live and dead Spirulina: IR spectroscopic, kinetics, and SEM studies.
Article in Current microbiology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
Cadmium is an important environmental pollutant and a potent toxicant to bacteria, algae, and fungi. Mechanisms of Cd+2 toxicity and resistance are variable, depending on the organism. The present work reports the use of live and dead Spirulina sp. for sorption of Cd+2. This investigation shows that this biomass takes up substantial amount of Cd+2 ions. IR spectroscopic study, kinetics models, Langmuir & Freundlich adsorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopic analysis of Spirulina sp., and the Spirulina sp. treated with different metal ions have been employed to understand the sorption mechanism. Infrared spectra of live Spirulina treated with Cd+2 ions for different lengths of time have been taken to understand the time dependency of metal interaction.
