Adsorption of bisphenol A by activated carbon developed from PET waste by KOH activation.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
This study deals with the preparation of activated carbon (AC) from poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) waste and with the physicochemical characterization of AC and its use as adsorbent of bisphenol A (BPA) in aqueous solution. AC was prepared by chemical activation with KOH and by physical activation in steam. The activation with KOH was carried out by impregnation first of PET by wet and dry routes at the PET/KOH weight ratios of 1:1, 1:3, and 1:5 and by carbonization then of the resulting products at 850 °C for 2 h in N
