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

Chromium removal from aqueous solutions has gained attention due to its hazardous impact on life organisms. In the present study, sorption processes were performed to examine the opportunity to apply biochar derived from waste tomato leaves and stems for Cr(III) ion removal. Biochars were produced through pyrolysis in a wide range of temperature (250-800 °C). The obtained biochars were investigated in detail by means of ultimate and proximate analyses, pH point of zero charge, FT-IR, scanning electron microscopy, and mercury porosimetry. Biochars are characterized by high amount of ash varying from 23 to 44% and as a result high pHpzc values of about 13. It was proven that increasing pyrolysis temperature positively affected sorption of Cr(III) ions. Mineral matter in the biochars plays a crucial role in the removal of Cr(III) ions from aqueous solution mainly due to their precipitation. The sorption capacity of biochar produced at 800 °C was 169.5 mg g
