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

As the most important graphene derivate, graphene oxide (GO) is a high-efficient adsorbent for the removal of heavy metals in aquatic environment due to its abundant oxygen functional groups, enormous specific area, and strong hydrophilia. However, there are some drawbacks, such as easily aggregating and difficult separation, restricting the environmental application of GO. GO is not a suitable adsorbent by itself. Hence, some materials were used to synthesize GO composites, and GO composites are commonly characterized by high adsorption capacity to overcome the above drawbacks. This review discusses five main GO composites-GO-chitosan, GO-alginate, GO-SiO
