High Selective Composite Polyalkylmethylsiloxane Membranes for Pervaporative Removal of MTBE from Water: Effect of Polymer Side-chain.

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
For the first time, the effect of the side-chain in polyalkylmethylsiloxane towards pervaporative removal of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) from water was studied. The noticeable enhancement of separation factor during the pervaporation of 1 wt.% MTBE solution in water through the dense film (40-50 µm) can be achieved by substitution of a methyl group (separation factor 111) for heptyl (161), octyl (169) or decyl (180) one in polyalkylmethylsiloxane. Composite membrane with the selective layer (~8 µm) made of polydecylmethylsiloxane (M10) on top of microfiltration support (MFFK membrane) demonstrated MTBE/water separation factor of 310, which was 72% greater than for the dense film (180). A high separation factor together with an overall flux of 0.82 kg·m
