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
In the present work, the biomass derived carbon decorated with humic acid (HC), was synthesized through impregnation method for the adsorption of phenol from water environment. Humic acids contain more oxygen-containing functional groups and hydrogen bonds, which promotes the binding between HC and phenol molecules. The results indicated that the adsorption performance of HC to phenol was better than that of commercial activated carbon. Moreover, in addition to physical absorption, the chemical reaction between carboxylic groups on the carbon surface and hydroxyl in phenol also played an important role during the process. The adsorption behavior of HC was described by equilibrium and kinetics parameters. Pseudo-second order model can describe the adsorption process well. Langmuir model was more suitable for the equilibrium adsorption data fitting, indicating that the adsorption mechanism of phenol on carbon surface tends to be monolayer adsorption. Considering practical application, UV
